Flowers we bought at Eastern Market for Natalie.
Little Popsicle stick house Anna and I made.
Last night, as Jason and I were in bed, talking about future planes and a PCS, I heard yelling outside.
We live only a street over from a main road in the small city we live in, so it is normal to hear firetrucks and ambulances. However, last night, after hearing the yelling, I heard sirens much louder than normal.
We ran downstairs and stood on our lawn to try to see what was going on, only to see the street parallel to ours was lined with firetrucks and cop cars. On our side of the street, there are only 3 to 4 houses, including ours, so we could clearly see the commotion. Jason and I walked down to the corner lot on our street and watched firefighters in and out of a house on the opposite street.
We found out later that a neighbor's house had caught fire and that the lady who lived there couldn't locate her young daughter to get her out. Sadly, when the little girl was found, she was no longer alive.
If you would, just say a prayer for this family. Thank you.
We went down to Eastern Market this morning, before heading to Joe and Natalie's for a cook-out. Most of today was spent with friends, just relaxing and it was wonderful. :)
xoxo,
Heather
