Yesterday

Unfortunately, much of Oklahoma suffered the same fate as Missouri yesterday.  It was such a strange day.  You could feel the humidity in the air so heavy and oppressive, you could cut it with a knife.   About 3:00PM the sirens started to sound.

We spent a couple of hours yesterday afternoon in the neighbors shelter, visiting with neighbors and listening to the sirens go off repeatedly.  We were very fortunate.

Not so with a community just to the North of us.  So much devastation.  So much sadness. A 3 year old little boy is still missing.  His 16 month old sibling did not make it, and his other sibling and his pregnant mommy are in the hospital.

To the South of us, also devastation.  So many homes totally leveled.  It’s very difficult to blog about anything happy or silly today with so much suffering.

Our hearts and our prayers go out to those who have lost so much.

May God help you through this time of loss.
