We're getting ready for bed now, just finished watching 'Nim's Island' which is one of the best movies (except for the quick ending) I've watched in a while. Just walked outside and its raining lightly, but steadily and the trees are swaying gently - might be the 'calm before the storm' and what we are really watching for right now is tornadoes - no way to predict them and the come up very quickly! The kiddos are camping out on our floor and having a blast. Alex is fascinated by the storm updates and she is such an amazing reader that there is no hope of keeping anything from her! She says it sounds like its heading for us, but she's not worried, she's SCARED! Apparently there is a subtle difference! More tomorrow! Fay should be here in the morning!
