So Trusting

A week ago Sunday we had a huge monsoon storm and the kids were having a blast watching the rain and the wind and the hail. Jay told them they'd better get their swimsuits on because pretty soon we'd all be swimming in the yard. The happily obliged, then waited for the flood. Not long after that, Jay told them they'd better get their 72-Hour Kits ready in case the power went out and the streets flooded. They again obeyed. They ran upstairs and brought down the large Rubbermaid container full of emergency supplies, and proceeded to play with the flashlights the rest of the evening- even though it wasn't dark yet. We decided to go for a drive to see how much water we had received, during which I was thrown up on by James. We came home for a shower, and enjoyed the duration of the storm. I think the kids were bummed they didn't really get to use their emergency supplies and swimsuits.
