What a crazy afternoon yesterday! Story time! Well, my car wouldn't start in the parking lot while I was at the store so I had to wait for someone to come jump the car for me (after a silent prayer, a kind lady who was parked right by me came to help) unfortunately the car still wouldn't start so she was even kinder and drove me and my babies home just before the boys got home from school.
The wind started to pick up a little when we got inside and by the time we got a few things put away the wind was blowing harder. So I ran down the street to make sure Taylor and Levi were safe the rest of the way home. While running along, the wind was even crazier. Garbage and recyle cans were tipping over, garbage was flying all over the neighborhood, trampolines were jumping over fences, tree branches were breaking, fences were coming apart, and kids were running home terrified and crying. Once Levi spotted me, the tears came. He was so scared and it broke my heart. I grabbed his bike and we all ran home. Into the safety of those four walls.
That afternoon we cuddled on the couch, watched the storm pass, and ate chicken noodle soup that had been simmering all day. So in the end, it was a pretty nice, cozy, kind of a day.
And Justin was able to come to the rescue and fix the van no problem :)
