 Summer Solstice Prayer to the Sun

Dear Sun, Thank you for turning all the yellow dandelions 

into white ones we can blow,

and thanks for being warmer and warmer everyday,

and I love you.

-Dorian age 3

The boy's spontaneous prayers to the sun worked wonders in calling her out yesterday, by the end of the day, after a long stretch of cold, rainy days, the sun was beaming down, warming us as we ate our celebration supper and cake in the back yard and read bedtime stories under the willow tree before bed. A glorious day.  The rain is back today, with a big booming thunderstorm, but we soaked in enough yesterday for last us for a bit.
Happy Solstice, friends!
