    My daughter once asked me, “Do rainbows stop the rain?”

    She was three and, in my opinion, very insightful. These rainbows keep showing up right about the time the rain stops. A little too convenient to be a coincidence, right?

      IDK man, she might be on to something. Look at this rainbow. It’s more like a rain shield…ain’t no archer DPS this is tanks.

      And every time when the rainbow appears and the rain stops, the clouds float away and it’s sunny again. It’s almost as if all of these things are connected somehow.

        Another nugget of wisdom from her: one time she asks me, cryptically, “What happens when the wind blows?”

        It just sounds like such a profound question. So I’m wracking my brain to figure out where she’s going with this, and eventually I say, “I don’t know.”

        “The cradle will rock.”

        Of course.
