Notes

"The boy was dancing and jumping in the rain when his mother asked him to come in for supper. Over the meal, she explained to him that clouds make rain. The second day he went searching for a cloud and came back home carrying a small one. He offered it to his mother for her birthday." (Nadim Karam)
