"Come on, Daddy," said Tyler as it began to lightly rain, "let's go out into the rain." Although I was as hot as Haitis, I really wasn't in the mood to get wet, but I decided to go anyway with Tyler, for it was only sprinkling at the moment, and I could tell that it sounded like fun to him. So out into the rain we went on our balcony, for we had returned home from our day at the orphanage. And before long it began to pour . . . and then torrential rain came down . . . and Tyler and I just soaked it up. And before long, Susan joined us, and then our friend, Josiah, came out with a bar of soap and we began taking a shower. For, you see, in Haiti, you cannot take a normal shower, for water is so precious. So when the rain started coming down in buckets, we started to fully enjoy our first "real" shower. And, oh, how wonderful it was to cool down. God is so good; open your eyes and see His goodness, for it is all around you.
