Yes, We Had An Earthquake

Just a quick note to let you know that yes, the earthquake hit not too far from us and we most definitely felt it. It was very strange and a little scary. We felt the floor and other furniture moving, there was a huge noise, and the pictures on the wall kept rattling for minutes afterwards. It wasn't terrible, obviously, but it made me think a lot about being prepared. It also make me think about what matters most. We always go in and look at the kids after they've gone to sleep, but last night, seeing them safely tucked in their beds took on new meaning. We all know it's going to be part of living in the bay area, but still, you're never quite "ready". As my neighbor said last night: "Welcome to California!"
