I have many things to be thankful for!
Today, I am thankful for our LIVES!
As you can see, our house caught on fire July 21, 2009. We had left around 9:45 to deliver a puppy to Charlotte. At around 11am or so, the fire department received a phone call that my home was on fire. They worked for two hours and got the fire contained before calling us to deliver this terrible news to us by phone. We rushed home and found that the wonderful firefighters at Green Creek Fire Dept and others had saved most of my pictures and photo albums and all but 1 dog. We are so thankful that they went above and beyond and were able to save many of our precious momentos that could not be replaced. They stayed until around 5pm, but had to come back twice to put out some hot spots. Our house is a loss inside. The fire went from the kitchen window up and T'd out across the roof. We have lost almost everything we own, but we still have each other and that is what matters to me.
Now, I want to get my story out! We will know for sure soon, but the firefighters think that the fire started by one of my (MANY) suncatchers in my kitchen window. They think that the suncatcher caught my paper towels on fire that were on their holder by the sink. I am telling all I can, because per the insurance company this has happened to other people.
We are all okay, just pray for us!
Lord, I am thankful that you kept us safe during this horrible ordeal. I am thankful that we were not in the home and that most of my dogs were saved. I am thankful for each and every day that you give me. Thank you Lord for knowing that I would go through this and sending the many friends and loved ones to help me get through this! THANK YOU LORD FOR LIFE!!!!!!
