Summer Rain

I took Sienna to the pool with H and his mother. Just when we came back into the house, the rain started to pour, to our great disappointment. Our dear friend A had this BBQ party scheduled over a month ago. Today is the day. How nice! They even invited our friends who they’ve heard so much but never met before.

The rain turned out to be a blessing. It stopped miraculously on time for the party to start. Their backyard was refreshing than ever with big trees and the scene of grasses. The party was a blast - what else to expect when you have a mix of Chinese and Jewish. My friends and my other friends liked each other. I asked them not to explore the idea of our China adventure. Sienna didn’t know the whole story. As she understands it, they had this party because we are going to China for a visit. She is rushing us to go. “We should go next Saturday,” she said.
