Red Sky at Night......

Yesterday morning when we woke up, the sun was just starting to rise. I opened Drake's shade and showed him the pretty red sky. I then told him the phrase:

Red sky at night,
Sailor's delight.

Red sky in morning,

Sailor's warning.


And proceeded to tell him the story behind this and that there was a storm moving in.

When I picked him up from school in the drizzle, he told me, "Daniel wore shorts and a short sleeve shirt. He must not have seen the red sky". Indeed Drake - Daniel must not have a cool mom like you that can "read the sky" (and watches the weather :)
