First Autumn Night

























I camped outside in the back yard last night with my 4 year old daughter, Audra. It was her first time to sleep under the stars. After we read 'Green Eggs and Ham' by flashlight, we listened to the sound of crickets, and watched the shadows of trees lit by the glow of the rising moon.

"What's it like being outside in the tent?"

"
Rainbowy," dad. "Rainbowy."
