I went back inside, got Em out of the shower, cleaned out the linen closet and explained to the girls our plan. I put the girls in the linen closet and Em and I decided that there was enough room with her to put Junior there, since that would be the safest place for him. I planned to go to the front closet. The alarms went silent.
I left Junior asleep in his crib and then the girls wanted to sleep in the closet all night. I got them back in bed, and they are now fast asleep.
My mom is holed up in her bathroom. My sister has her laundry room filled with sleeping bags, candles and flashlights.
Why is it that I can't find our lantern, the wind up flashlight or any of the other flashlights when I need them? That's what I get for putting them somewhere "safe" after finding the kids with them--reading when they should have been sleeping!

My side of Houston got it last night. w/o power from 3-5:30am. I had already dug out the "wind-up LED lantern" and was debating if I was going to attempt make-up by latern or not. And then we had lights!!!!!! Kids knew nothing of it.
Dang, I was outside smoking - enjoying the wind and the rain. Should I have been more concerned? :)
