Rain, Rain, Go AWAY!

I am so tired of the rain. I can't remember the last sunny day we have had. It makes me so sleepy all day to have the no sunlight coming through the windows. Cannon is so tired of being inside. Yesterday he had a break down. He decided he wanted to go to the splash park. I told him that we couldn't because it was raining. He didn't like that. He still insisted we go to the splash park. So I opened the back door and told him to see that it was raining and cold outside so we can't go to the park. Still he didn't think that was a good enough reason. So he screamed and cried. I put him in bed and told him to come out when he calmed down. Well he came out crying. I was in the kitchen making a sandwich. He got the idea that I was making sandwiches for the splash park, like I had done a few times this summer. He got in the pantry and grabbed the lunchbox. I told him no, we aren't going to pack a lunch. We are eating here. Another temper tantrum! The poor boy just wanted to go to the splash park! So he was sent to bed again. This time he was better when he came out. We ate lunch and about 30 minutes later he was passed out on the couch. I have a very stubborn child. I am told he gets that from me. :)

On another note, I ask for prayer for my step-dad's nephew and his wife. They had their first child last night. Unfortunately, their baby boy decided to come a few months early. He was born at 27 weeks. He only weighs 2 lbs. So if everyone could please lift Luke and Hollie up in your prayers. This is an exciting time but also a very scary and trying time. Pray for their baby boy to go strong and fight with all he has. I know with the help of God he will be a happy, healthy baby boy soon! Thanks for your prayers. I know they will appreciate all the prayers they can get!
