Counting Our Blessings

     Yesterday was a crazy day to say the least!  With all of the unusually warm weather we have been having thunderstorms have become a normal part of our February (and early March) forecast.  Unfortunately yesterday's storms and tornado completely destroyed a high school, many houses, buildings and the hope of an entire town just 5 miles away from our house.  As I continue to see pictures of the damage Henryville experienced I am just amazed!  The devestation the town experienced is heartbreaking!  I think of how selfishly frustrated I felt yesterday that we weren't able to get our kids at school home safely before the storms hit, but realize how lucky and blessed we were to be in those safe, hot and crowded hallways.  My thoughts and prayers are going out to those people affected in Henryville, Borden and any other area that was hit hard yesterday.  Here are a few images that will serve as a reminder to count and be thankful for your blessings each and every day!
