Forgive my ignorance! I really missed this one! <br />I don't have a newspaper and I don't have time to look at TV or even radio news. <br />Thank you for setting me straight.

I can't imagine living through anything like this. I would still have nightmares, and even though I haven't experienced it first hand, I have to believe inside your heart you are torn by staying and taking it all in, or leaving to be safe....and return later...it's got to be like walking away from a loved one, truly it is. Not just for the things we own, but life that lives around it all....from a flower to a deer, it's got to be heartbreaking. Your post really runs deep through my veins.21 Witshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00071361755673253230noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5464278377527384610.post-46676303821683108432012-05-20T19:40:01.252-07:002012-05-20T19:40:01.252-07:00I caught my pulse starting to race.

When a three year old was asked about the recent flooding of her home, she replied, "Everything got broke."<br /><br />Having fun activities to distract children from what is happening outside is a great step in helping them overcome the fear. With children happy, the parents fears are less.<br /><br />As in the US, we often suffer flood and fire with fire too often deliberately or accidentally lit.rmannellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10325881715643049499noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5464278377527384610.post-29934191856918788872012-05-19T16:17:08.618-07:002012-05-19T16:17:08.618-07:00Whoa!
