Weather!
by carolynholm
Hey Mom,
So many scary noises!!!!!!!!!
Winston
Dear Winston,
I saw you tear out of here when that thunder rolled overhead!
Love, Carolyn
Hey Mom,
That was thunder? I thought the house was falling down! So, what’s thunder?
Winston
Dear Winston,
It’s the sound a storm makes when it comes in and starts banging around.
Love, Carolyn
Hey Mom,
Like you when you are rummaging around with the pots and pans?
Winston
Dear Winston,
A bit like that.
Love, Carolyn
Hey Mom,
I’m used to all the usual alarming noises. I’m always ready to dash out of the room when I hear the UPS truck, or the kids with the thumping basketball, or the neighbor on his skateboard. But this week it’s all new stuff.
Winston
Dear Winston,
Weather. It’s all weather. We rarely get a storm as intense as we’ve gotten this week. But you don’t have to hide. It’s just noise.
Love, Carolyn
Hey Mom,
It’s so much FUN to hide!!!!!!!
Winston
Dear Winston,
Fair enough. So, that sound you hear now is the whoosh of really heavy rainfall. In fact, I have to say, it’s really making a racket!
Love, Carolyn
Hey Mom,
I think our house is being attacked by weather!!!!!!!
Winston
Dear Winston,
It’s hail! See all the white outside? That’s hail! No wonder it’s so noisy!
Love, Carolyn
Mom,
See? I was right!!!!! Our house is being attacked!!!!!!!
Winston
Dear Winston,
No, we’re fine. And look outside – there’s the UPS truck, stopping here. Everything is still normal.
Love, Carolyn
Mom,
I’ll be under the bed.
Winston
