Hug your kids

Because at this rate tornado's are ripping precious children out of mothers arms into these deadly tornado's. Makes me ill to see this. This was my worst nightmare as I whisked my kids from deep sleep into the tub with me, as I kissed and told them all I loved them. Last night we rushed into the boys into our bathroom with blankets and pillows as I frantically called mymom. I'm not gonna lie, I was freaking out, and that would be an understatement. The wind was fierce and the clouds were rotating fast. I didn't realize how many tornado warnings were in North Texas, and I never thought they would be so near to our home.We were directly under the clouds circulated which funneled and touched down a little east of us. It finally passed, but then I got online and read of all the missing children from the storm hitting other states, I wasn't able to sleep for hours. We are safe, and all that matters is our family, not the material things that you may lose. So thankful...
Here is a picture a friend who lives 2 miles south of us took,
which shows the storm right to the east of us, maybe a mile or two away.
After all was calm, #2 who sleeps through A TORNADO,
literally ---was fast asleep the entire time.
Don't worry we put him back into his bed
(Yes, he's in a diaper- cheaper than pull-ups,
he's a heavy bed wetter at night, heavy sigh,
but PT'ed since he was 2, I don't get it! )
