***STORM WARNING***

So last night we had a bad storm move through, with the possibility of "tornadic activity" (lol, that term always makes me laugh). So, Bill and I put the kids to bed telling them that the worst of the storm was almost through, and there would be NO tornado's. There was still some thunder and lightning, which they've never had a problem with before, but a few nights ago at 2:30am we had this GINORMOUS crack of thunder that woke up Emma and she came running to our room...this was followed by lightning so fast and bright that it looked like we had a strobe light in our bedroom. All was well, and we survived. But, back to last night...Bill and I were watching "Shutter Island" (wierd move, btw) and she at some point had run downstairs and threw this note on the floor and ran back to her room. :) So sweet.


It says:

"Dear Mom and Dad I am scared. Please come and snuggle for 5 minutes. Love Emma.

I just LOVE her!!!!

Glad your storm passed without any tornadic (heehee) activity near you!
What a sweet little note too! Sooooo funny though, that she would take the time to write a 2 page note when she was so scared. Makes me laugh!!
