rain

It's raining to beat the band tonight.  Standing water on the road type of rain.  All the trees and grass are brilliantly green type of rain.  

[That hedge needs a trim...]

But the rain caused something so awful to happen today.  It caused a gravel slide in a park that I used to drive by almost every day.  It caused a child to die, and one is missing.  Goodness I hope they find that child okay.  It's heartbreaking when natural disasters happen like this.  First the horrible tornado situation in Oklahoma, which took so many children's lives.  And then a gravel slide into the Mississippi river.  More children taken.  More hearts broken.  

Information about the gravel slide.

Praying for all the children lost, gone, and being missed tonight.
