We had, what Addie calls, a "refugee reunion" today. I took the girls to the movies, and Scott, who housed us after the flood, dropped his daughter Ashley and Susie's daughter Laura off to join us. The girls became a close foursome during our time together. Naturally, it stormed while we were together. Fortunately, we were in the movie for most of it, so the usual anxiety did not take hold. Ignorance is bliss. I couldn't help but think how swollen the creeks were after only two hours of rain. I'm sure I'm more sensitive to it, and all of this was normal, but I keep wondering how we can know this won't happen again for 500 or 1,000 years. The truth is, we can't know. Scary stuff! We'll just pray a lot and try to have faith.
All in all, it was a good day, and a fun time! The rain cooled us off by twenty degrees, and that felt wonderful!
