My poor poor home.

My dad sent us pictures of the destruction in our neighborhood back in Joplin...

Wow... what a mess?

That's sad... kind of pretty though.

Do you know if they have power yet?

I haven't heard from them.

[little_goot]

Yeah, they got power back Friday.

[a_voice]

That's good...
I called them today and they weren't home.
I guess we'll try again tomorrow!

We're headed out to a Holiday thing in the park tonight.

Have a good rest of the weekend!

Love ya,
B-

Crazy... is that all just ice? I hope everyone's okay!

Pretty.

And after it thaws a little, you can carve it up and store it for firewood.

Remember, every cloud has a silver lining. And thousands looking for it are struck by lightning.

Ew. Gross. MySpace.

Fine...but only so that your sister doesn't hate you.

I read your entry right after this one but there wasn't a place for me to leave you my thoughts...so here you go.

(It was the entry on your family and such...)

I could sit here and talk to you for hours about all of this but I'm just going to give you my 2 cents on one part...the guilt.

You mustn't feel guilty about knowing who you are and what you want to do. There is a reason for this. There is a reason you know these things. Whether or not we see it now or understand why, there is a reason. Maybe you are to be the beacon of light (first thing that popped in my head) for your family. Maybe (in time) they'll look to you for the way to live and for strength. But you mustn't feel guilty. The feeling of guilt will only cause you to resent what you have and possibly push away these great gifts in order not to have them and push away the guilt.

I love you darling! I'm always here for any and everything! *much love*
