The Storm

Well, I am sure most of you

experienced the storm that came

through Friday evening.

We were inside and it sounded

like a car was coming up our lane.

Well, that car happened to be wind.

I have never experienced anything

like it in my whole life. The wind was incredible.

We set on our swing and watched trees sway and 

listened to branches snap and trees fall.

We lost eight pine tree tops.

One landed on the back of our house

but did not damage the roof.

We were very thankful.

Our electric came back on Sunday afternoon.

It was a blessing indeed. We take things like

electricity and running water for granted.

God sent me the reminder I needed.

To be thankful for what He has blessed

us with. It seems like the more we

get the more we want. Lets just be

happy with a home, electricity

and running water.

Blessings,

Hope
