I got this email today from a friend that I've known for 18 years. Check out the link below for some serious photos of the tornado damage. In the shots we can clearly see the rubble that used to be Grandma's house directly behind the high school. In another they reference the Kwik Star which used to sit next to my aunt's house.

INSPIRATIONAL WORDS
for new parents of a child
with Down syndrome
..."There’s so much to consider! About learning how to manage prejudice, and about what to say and when to say it, and about how to juggle schedules and therapies and all that. There’s forgiveness, for all of us, and strength, and love, and hope, too. And faith, in yourself, and your child. Let your child show you the way. You will find it, together, and it will be amazing. It will be all the things you hoped it would be; it’s all there, waiting for you."
