Wed.11 Jayden and I had a girls day and went shopping. I surprised her by letting her get her ears pierced. Mark and I discussed the right age, he said 16 and I said 6. After much discussion we decided she would be responsible and take care of them at the age of 8. Jayden was brave as they did one ear at a time. She was thrilled and couldn’t wait to show them at VBS in the morning.
That night I had the kids with me in the basement until 11:00Pm as Mark was at a meeting and there were tornado warnings all over the state. There were 50 tornados that hit over the country all night. One of the tornadoes hit a boy scout camp near Omaha killing 4 boys. It was very tragic and terrified me thinking of Jayden at camp.The rain keeps coming down and an area in our basement continues to flood. There are thousands of flooded homes across the state. Cedar Rapids seems to be one of the worst hit areas.
