The most amazing thing

I had another first in France today, and it REALLY appealed to science side. The girls and I went to playgroup this morning, and got to see a beautiful rainbow. And I had the opportunity to talk to them about how rainbows are made. They seemed to understand, thanks to the fact that I was able to tie my explanation in to an episode of their favorite cartoons that explained how a prism makes a rainbow. There was another rainbow on the way home. The coolest thing was that, for the first time ever, I saw a rainbow that was on the ground. The clouds were so low and the angle of the sun was just right to make the rainbow on the ground. It was beautiful. I tried my best to get a picture, but I just couldn't get a good angle. I really needed to put the kids back in the car and go to a hill nearby, but they were melting down. I really hate that I missed the opportunity for the picture, but I will always remember the color of the sky with that rainbow. Maybe I'll have another opportunity one of these days. This does seem to be the land of rainbows.
