“The sky is crying mummy!” she said with wide-eyed astonishment. It has been raining quite a bit lately in Melbourne, and I can’t say my little Miss Mia is a fan of it (it prevents her visits to the park, naturally, which she adores with all of her heart) but to hear her new interpretation of rain made me smile.
“Why is it crying?” I asked her, wondering if she would allow me some insight into her gorgeous mind.
“I don’t know. It’s sad because the sun’s hiding?”
“Maybe…”
“Why does it have to rain, mummy?” she asked.
“It needs to rain sweetheart. All of the beautiful trees and plants need to have a drink, otherwise they get very thirsty”
“Oh…” she muttered, and, for a moment, seemed satisfied with the response. Then, she stopped and looked up at me. “Does the tree want my water?” she asked handing me her drink bottle.
“Not today Princess. Not today…”
For Mia
