April 24th...
I got the "privelage" to experience my first tornado warning today. Not what I call fun! Of course, had Derrick been home...I probably would have thought it was pretty awesome! Weather phenomenons, as scary as they may be, are actually really beautiful in all their intensity and I love feeling like I was a part of something that awesome...but at the same time they can be very dangerous and I just didn't feel safe without Derrick here.
I asked friends' advice, and researched online and I know feel semi-comfortable on what to do if those sirens go off again! I have the closet in Cael's room all decked out with water bottles and blankets...hopefully we won't have to use it, but just in case.
Since I knew today would be a little scary, we took advantage of our friend Brayden's birthday party! He turned 3 and he and Cael have been buds for quite a while, so it was nice to be with friends today when the sirens went off. The wind picked up and it rained like crazy, but that was about it...not too scary! So I think I am alright now. On a completely different note, tonight marks night 3 of Cael not being able to sleep. I don't know what is wrong with my little guy, he's fine during the day, but these past few nights he is just restless and hot. He's up again, so wish me luck. Goodnight!
