kajelTonight was the 6th anniversary of the storm that brought the lightning, that burned our house down. Wednesday, June 11, 2008. Wednesday, June 11, 2014. 5:30 this evening was the time that brought a storm, that brought the lightning, that made me think of our house fire. (anyone else feel like this is turning into a poem or nursery rhyme?) ;)
This evening was so eerily similar to that evening 6 years ago. Luckily, without the actual fire. A night that changed our lives in so many ways. I left the house around 6:30 in the middle of the storm. I had karate class tonight. The fire started around 6:35 that fateful night. I was glad to leave. I was developing some nervous energy. Working it off was a good thing. I came home two hours later to the smell of candles. Ned and the kids lost power at the house for almost an hour.
I am reminded tonight of how much I am thankful for. Hugs and love to all of you!
