Tornado Warning

Last night we had our second tornado warning in two weeks. This spring has had the worst weather that I can remember in a long time. In fact, since Seth was born 4 years ago, I don't think we have had to take shelter in our hallway. If we have, it was when he was very little because this is the first experience he remembers and he doesn't like it.

Two weeks ago, we had very large hail and high winds and it was quite scary. Last night was not nearly has bad but both boys were already in bed when the sirens sounded so we had to go wake them up to bring them to the hallway and, all parents know once they are asleep, it takes an act of God for you to have to wake them up.

Since we got them out of bad, I think Seth knew that this was serious and he was very scared. He was actually shaking as he sat in Shelley's lap and was full of questions.

The storm passed with no damage and amazingly both boys went right back to sleep.
