Our state was hit with rough weather today! I have never been calm in bad weather but as a parent I have too! These storms were predicted so we sort of knew they were coming...just not how bad. When the day was done, we are so blessed to be safe in our home!
We gathered the children quickly in the hall after this...
then moved to the bathroom for over an hour. We prayed, played and sang. All things considered the children were awesome...daddy even joked there might be room for one more in there..ha!! The biggest earthly helper through this was our NOAA weather radio. This alerted us as to were the tornados were. Priceless! Once the storm passed the Carolina blue skies appeared and we couldn't believe how beautiful everything was and how quiet the bathroom kept things. We never heard anything yet there was deris in our yard brought from miles away.

The chidren were curious about the tree (actually a very large branch!) so we ventured outside. 
It was sort of a science/weather lesson for them.
I was so thankful my family was spared and that He gave me peace and strength throughout the entire afternoon! Still praying for those in a different aftermath!
