Thunder Storms Are Loud

Today, Rose made it through another thunder storm…she always does but she freaks out with the loudness of the thunder and then as the heavy rain starts slapping everything outside she doesn’t calm down soon enough.  I am happy to have been there for her and to hold her as she was shaking uncontrollably and forgetting to breathe out.  Wrapped her in a blanket as I sat on the floor, she then buries her body into mine and her head into my legs - sweet, sweet girl.
