You think you've heard the whole story, and then you hear new things and you see different pictures and it just brings about a whole new perspective.
Cassie took this picture a couple of days after the tornado. Lovely photo of the sky, don't you think? Try this: she took it from her perch on the toilet seat where she and Midnight crouched during the tornado. Had it been daylight and...you know...sunny...after the tornado, this is a picture she could have taken one moment after the storm passed. This is the view they had once the tornado left, taking their home with it. Remember...this was a basement bathroom.
When I see this and know that the only thing between them and 200+ MPH winds was a bath towel over their heads...well...it brings new meaning to being hidden beneath the shadow of the Almighty.

In earlier posts, I showed you the span that they had to jump after they came upstairs and prepared to leave the house. But I didn't have a picture that gave the "straight down" view. Cassie took this. I forget how many feet they said it was - and remember it was dark and raining at this time. Amazing.
