Today...
We have had a HUGE storm just come through. We have been decreased from a tornado warning to a tornado watch until late this afternoon. At one point there was a tornado headed straight for our town at 40 mph. Holy cow. I was scared. Mike was at work and they had them move into the warehouse and Walmart had everyone move to the center of the store. The kids and I prayed REALLY hard. I'm really not enjoying this!
Yesterday...
Yesterday was May Day, and with it came a lot of memories. I used to take my Grammie and my Grandma flowers when I was little, so I called them and wished them both a happy May Day. My mom is the one who helped make this day special for me. She's the best mom ever. With all the memories of May Day, I started thinking of my friends. I've lived in many places in my life and I have made friends (and am still friends) with people from every place, but I think the friends that have influenced my life the most are the friends I made at PVTH. Every one has made me a better person. Brittany who helped me believe in myself, Kourtney is the kind of mom I want to be, I want to keep the Spirit in my home like Nicole, Gaylene who is like another mother to me, Kacie who helped me have fun and feel like I fit in when we first moved in, Michele always made me feel good, and Dana's friendship means more than I can put into words. Lora, Danielle, Leanne, LeAnn, Amanda, Anita, Tabitha, I could go on and on. Then there's the ladies in C. C. I don't think there's enough room in one post to name you all. You are all women who have helped me to see myself more clearly as a daughter of God and who have enriched my life beyond measure. I am so richly blessed to have you all for my friends. So thank you to all of you who have given me so much. I want to be like you when I grow up!
Tomorrow...
Tomorrow is a new day and I pray that I will be better tomorrow than I am today. We will strive continually to do the Lord's will and look forward to the day that we can be back with all of you! We are selling our house and I know that the Lord will provide the way for us to be back where we belong.

How scary to have to deal with tornados, that's crazy!! I was glad to hear that you've decided to sell your house. I hope everything works out for the best. We are giving these people about 4 more weeks to decide if they'll drop the price on that home and if not then we will most likely come and rent until we find something else we like.
Ummm... so yea, I think you should try to get back here as soon as possible. Tornados sound way to scary. Hopefully, things will work out quickly.
I just know that everything will work out for you guys to come home!
Tornados are too much for me-hurry back!
I think your mom is a saint. tell your mom that she is awesome. I am dsorry to hear about the tornadoes. Just remember this is a short chapter of your life in Texas. One day you'll tell your grandkids about it and they'll ooh and ahh.
Holy Cow! I can't believe you had a tornado coming towards you! That is one of my worst nightmares! As for the nice things you said, you are a sweetheart and always find the good and positive in people! I really admire that in you! You really are a true friend!
Ummm tornadoes...I'd get out of there if I were you. Let me tell you, you don't want to be like me as a mom. No, I want to be like you. I have discovered a lot about myself and and where my priorities are and how I need to change. Only through examples like you, I have found who I should be more like.
I love you Heather! I miss you. You will always be one of my best friends. I can't believe Jack is crawling around already! I'm glad you got to have some excitement with that tornado, but not too much excitement!
