And while most of us have yet to find that promised pot of gold guarded by a leprechaun at the end of the rainbow, we still root for the popular Irish legend.

Another type of bow colored red, or red and green may appear with primary and secondary bows. Occasionally, several bands of color can be seen just within the primary rainbow. These extra bands are known as supernumerary rainbows, and they were explained in 1803 by the British scientist Thomas Young when he realized that light consisted of waves. They are due to the diffraction (deflection) of light. The prophet Isaiah spoke for God when Isaiah prophesied, When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; and through the rivers, they shall not overwhelm you( Isaiah 43:2).The song “Somewhere, Over the Rainbow,” a timeless tune from The Wizard of Oz, brings hope to a Kansas farm girl yearning for adventure and beauty. If she can climb beyond the rainbow, out of her mundane existence, she believes she will achieve her dreams. The original vinyl release was a gatefold sleeve, containing a photo of the band inside, with a generic Polydor inner sleeve. Rising peaked at number 48 on the Billboard Pop Albums chart. [6] In the UK it peaked at number 11. [7] The first reference to a rainbow in the Bible is when Noah and his brood spotted a rainbow in the sky after the great flood had ended, and they left the ark to enter dry land. The rainbow God displayed in the sky represented the promise, or covenant, that God would never again destroy the earth by a flood:

In the morning the sun is in the east; to see a rainbow you must be facing toward the west where it's raining. Since showery weather usually comes from the west, take warning from the morning rainbow. At night (well, actually more like late afternoon, but "afternoon" doesn't rhyme with "delight") the sun is in the western sky; after a shower or thunderstorm has already passed you by, it usually is retreating toward the east, where you'll see your rainbow. Duncan, Robert (15 July 1976). "Album review: Rainbow – Rainbow Rising". Rolling Stone. Archived from the original on 7 November 2007 . Retrieved 9 August 2011. And because showers are more frequent in the late afternoon than in the early morning, late-afternoon rainbow sightings are far more frequent than in the morning and it's for this reason that the appearance of a rainbow is usually associated with the onset of improving weather. Another reverse flood event was when God parted the Jordon River so that the Israelites could enter the Promised Land of Canaan after wandering in the desert for forty years.There is even evidence for a third or tertiary rainbow that has been seen on rare occasions, and a few observers have even reported seeing quadruple rainbows in which a dim outermost arc had a rippling and pulsating appearance. Rainbows form when drops of rain act as prisms, breaking sunlight into a multitude of colors. Sundogs appear when sunlight passes through a thin veil of ice crystal clouds (usually cirrus or cirrostratus), and the ice acts as a prism, refracting thelight. Now the Jordan is at flood stage all during harvest. Yet as soon as the priests who carried the ark reached the Jordan and their feet touched the water’s edge, the water from upstream stopped flowing. The priests who carried the ark of the covenant of the Lord stopped in the middle of the Jordan and stood on dry ground, while all Israel passed by until the whole nation had completed the crossing on dry ground.” ( Joshua 3:15-17)

we do have two pets for children to enjoy = Rabbit - Angus / Dog Raptor both are very friendly and enjoy interacting with children. Unfortunately, it takes some patience to spot a rainbow. While you are waiting to take that perfect shot (or just marvel at it with the naked eye), read through our fun Irish facts about rainbows. 10. Rainbow in Latin means “rainy arch” A rainbow in County Donegal Another prophecy of Isaiah specifically mentions God’s covenant with Noah not to destroy the earth by flood again:A third factor conducive to rainbow sightings is daytime heating, which drives island-scale circulations. During periods of lighter winds, showers form over the ridge crests over Oahu and Kauai in the afternoon, resulting in prolific rainbows as the sun sets. As we have seen, most rainbows are caused by sunlight and are seen in the day, but occasionally we can be rewarded by a glimpse of a moonbow caused by a full or nearly-full moon. Moonbows are most frequently sighted around tropical islands, such as in the Caribbean, where localized showers can persist well into the night. Most people report them to be white, but Robert Greenler who is well known for his popular lectures on optical phenomena suspects that this is a physiological factor. At low levels of illumination, he points out, the eye loses its color sensitivity, so that a standard multihued bow appears white. And indeed, photos of moonbows do show colors, but to the photographer it appeared to be white. I have for the past 11 years been a mum who has used the service of childminders so I have the understanding from a parents prospective of what the parents needs are and understand that it can be a struggle for parents for what ever the circumstances have to employee a childminder to look after their child/ren instead of them.
