What is this thing called the sun?

If you don't live here in Portland, you may not understand that we don't see the sun really until July - there are small spurts of it here and there, but really it's rain until then. This week we had a heat wave, yes that's right a heat wave. Violet has had very little exposure to the sun, we made sure and enjoyed our short lived sunny days. She loves to clap right now, so the first photo is in mid clap phase. Happy sunny days!
