Before the Storm

I was fortunate enough to be home today when the storm came rolling thru.  After seeing what the storm had done to areas already hit, I called the kiddos in to action!  We went around the yard securing chairs, grills, and all light-weighted yard things.  Once the yard was secured, everyone came inside.

Then the wind kicked up!  So we went outside to play!!!  Some kiddos came willingly.  Some kiddos had to be dragged.  But eventually all kiddos were out playing in the wind!!  We came inside once the rain started.  And, just for disclosure’s sake, there was no lightening at this time!

Tonight I am thankful for a few minutes playing in the wind-before-the-storm with my kiddos!  It was the best part of my day!  ❤
