Praising God...

Monday was one of the scariest days of my life.  The tornado in Moore, Oklahoma, came much too close for comfort.  Our grandson, Pierce, was in daycare in Moore, right in the path of the tornado.  This is a picture of the house he was in as it looked immediately after the storm.

We owe Pierce's daycare provider, Miss Janet, and her husband more than we could ever repay.  Their quick thinking and God's protective hand saved our beautiful Pierce.  We have not ceased praising God and are praying for rich blessings to pour down on our own personal angel - Miss Janet.  Thank you seems very inadequate.

Spring has finally Sprung...

Well, Spring is finally here.  Our weather went from the 40's to the 80's, so I guess we actually skipped Spring and went straight to Summer.  The flowers and trees are very confused and are trying to make up for lost time.  It is nice to drive around town and see the flowering crab-apple trees.  They are beautiful.  The lilacs won't show up for a few weeks, I'd bet.  The weather should level out to more normal temperatures this week so the plants can calm down and go through their normal Spring fling.
