Yesterday was pretty nasty and at one point we were in a tornado warning. The worst part was I had put Meigan on the bus and not more than 5 minutes later, they put up the warning! She made it to school safe and sound, but had me unnerved to say the least! The tornadoes around Nashville were about 2 hrs. north of us. I guess the worst of the storms hit Tn. The devistation reminds me of what we are used to seeing with the hurricanes. Hurricanes you have some warning though. Tornadoes truly scare me.
Also I heard on the news today about a school shooting/stabbing of a teacher in Portsmouth, Oh. I did my student teaching at this elementary school. A teacher's estranged husband walked into the school and did this to her during her class of 5th grade. This is not how I like to hear my old hometown making the big news. So far, the teacher is in critical care in Huntington, WV and the ex took his own life after fleeing to his house. My prayers go out to the teacher and to the children who had to witness such a horrific event. Notre Dame Elem. will always be near and dear to my heart.

Glad you dodged the storms okay. It is so sad for those who did not; but, what a miracle of that 11 month old boy they found alive in the field. God has a purpose for his life. It is sad about the teacher in Portsmouth and the other lady the guy stabbed. Not how you want your area to make the news.
Glad the storms missed you. I kept thinking to myself that I didn't know anyone up there, but I forgot you weren't a Fla girl any longer.
That school shooting was so sad.
