"You stand up for what you believe in, even if it gets you in the way of what others think..."

My photo
if i could use one word to describe my life SERENDIPITY seems to fit the space... i stumbled upon my husband during a time i shouldn't have and my story goes on from there... constantly falling or stumbling upon remarkable gifts and people who bring fortune to our lives... when we fall we learn and strive toward the next step.

weathery thoughts~





nov. 16,

last night brought in our first
 wind storm
of the season
do you know how hard it is to remain calm
for the sake of your littles
when it feels like at any given moment
the trees are just going to snap
and come falling hard upon your house
if the sky was falling last night
then we experienced what it was like

our littlest asked
"mama...if a tree fell into our house...we would have no home right"
his poor little heart was beating so fast

me: "sweetie lets not think like that
true, our house would be damamged but we could fix it
so lets think only good thoughts
and put such out into the universe...o.k."

little: "o.k. mama"


branches and many other things were crashing down on our roof
we are surrounded by
HUGE
trees
a few years back we had a branch come through our roof
uuuggg
this year only our back gutter had come out with a wound 
this is what is scattered all over our backyard


we l♥ve our trees
but during such weather
it can be a bit scary

happy to say
we made it through
and when i woke this morning
all electronics were flickering
giving me hope
that all was well

power went out for sometime but
but happy as you can see
that it is
ON
and hopefully stays ON!!

i read this morning from the news
"in the Monday windstorm in which gusts hit 60 mph in places."

We too are unsettled by the wind. The grands lived in SC and had a very close call with a tornado (within blocks) so they are always leary of the harsh winds. It's hard on small ones and big ones too. We were supposed to have a dusting of snow last week....nothing. Next week no because we will be in the 60's but the week after...a possibility.
So I hope you can show us some snow....I love snow.

I know what you mean with these windstorms. We had some pretty fierce storms here this fall. Snow for Thanksgiving. We've a ways to go before that. I'm just hoping the temperatures goes down at least to the 40's that day. House gets far too hot with all that cooking.

It would seem Brother Wind heard your wee one's small voice and yours as well! :) So glad all is well Sister!

We had some really whopper winds around here a few weeks ago and it can get concerning to be sure. Our wind gusts were up to 60 miles and hour too. Hopefully we will see a few snow showers before the week is out and for Thanksgiving.

I love the Snowflake Fairy...too adorable!

Wishing for you gentle breezes!

I'm so glad everything is ok...it's difficult reassuring the little ones when you are so frightened yourself x

Words from the little's are always precious.

So glad you all came through the storm safe!

Blessings.

We experienced a bad wind storm a few weeks ago - it can be very scary. What beautiful soothing words you imparted to your little one to ease his fears. :) Now I see snow will be coming. It is, at least, a better alternative to damaging winds. Take care - I am glad no damage was done! Theresa

my beliefs include many, constantly seeking knowledge, not needing one particular label that defines me nor trying to justify my thoughts to anyone else but me...this is my life and i am living it my way...bringing happiness to my inner soul.
