This mess is what Max found on his way back from work in the morning (he had been at PT early and was coming home to change) when he looked at our house from the road. On the way out to work, seeing some debris along the way, he had been thinking about the unfortunate person who had their barn or utility building blown away, not realizing it was ours! When Max mentioned that we did not have a barn anymore while I sleepily scooted around the kitchen in my robe making breakfast and waking up, I could hardly believe it because I had slept through the storm and a tornado! Max had heard it, but did not realize it was our barn getting blown apart by a twister. My first concern was the garden we had planted over by the barn.God was really watching after us (and our little plants). The barn is not too far from the kids' bedrooms, but thankfully only took out the barn and not the house. The plants were not even injured because a wall twisted around and fell on it in such a way that it was more sheltering the plants than crushing them. I think the plants are actually happier now because they don't have the shade from the barn on them for part of the day!
Thank you God for your protection!
