It's been a year...?
Exactly one year ago today.... Four tornadoes touched down in my city. I remember it clear like it was yesterday. I was sitting at my dads girlfriend's friends house to babysit her four boys. We were just all outside playing. Then the scream of the horns went off. We all ran to the house... seconds later we had the neighbors in the basement because we were the only house with a basement on that street. I remember holding the boys and praying for my boyfriend and family to be safe. It hit the house... everyone in that basement screamed and held tight to the basement poles. It's something that most people never think would happened but did. As fast as it came it was gone again. I called my boyfriend only to get his roommate answer the phone to tell me he was getting dug out of the trailer and the house that it was thrown into. My heart stopped dead. I called my mom, dad, and the mother of the four boys and told them I had to go. I booked it to the hospital and ran through it to find my boyfriend. No one died on that day... the only one who was seriously hurt was the one I wanted to be with for the rest of my life. Now we are almost cleaning up the damage from that day. I am just glad that I still have him in my life and that I lost no one:) I just hope I never have to go through it again.
