All the time.

6. What was the worst weather you have ever been stuck in?
I took our oldest, then 3, to buy fireworks in a tent in Mississippi one 4th of July. And suddenly two police cars fly into the lot and they are yelling at us to "take cover". There was a tornado coming - one of the women working at the cash register grabbed my daughter and pulled her under the makeshift counter with her. I just watched. It missed us but the wind and noise were fearsome. It passed quickly, and thanks be to God it missed us. There wouldn't have been anything left. We were in a valley. My oldest is terrified of storms.
