I love a good summer evening storm.

The BF and I had just put FOH to bed when lightning started lighting up the night sky.

We decided to sit out on the front porch on our swing to watch the storm. It was gorgeous. The rain poured down in sheets, with a strong wind. Oh, that cleansing smell of the rain. How wonderful it is.

And how wonderful it was to enjoy watching a summer storm with the BF. I keep having to tell myself that while yes, the focus of our attention has shifted to FOH and we have less time together now as a couple, that doesn’t mean it has to be hard for us to find time to connect.

Often I think spending time means big chunks of time … but when it comes to quality time of truly being present with your significant other, time is irrelevant. We were only outside for maybe 15 minutes, but those 15 minutes filled me up with love and appreciation.
