Tornadoes have been ripping a path across the midwest and eastern parts of the United States, leaving only devestation and heartache in it’s wake.  My area was among those that were hit during the initial storms last week.  Several towns about 40 minutes south of us were completely wiped out.

Is this what we have to face with spring approaching?

Countless stories fill the headlines of lives lost, limbs sacrificed for the sake of children and families torn apart.  My thoughts and prayers go out to each person who has been affected by these storms.

If you are able, I encourage you to find a legitimate source that you can donate money, food and household items to help these victims.  Many stores in my location have joined efforts to help out. I’m sure there are countless more across the country.
