We will tell the next generation the praiseworthy deeds of the Lord, his power and the wonders he has done. So the next generation would know and tell their children. Then they would put their trust in God, remember his deeds, and keep his commandments. - Psalm 78: 4-7

After the EarthQuake


After the eathquake, Jed calmly and methodically started evacuation procedures. He prepared, on his own, the following:

-his Cars backpack with his collection of 5 Geronimo Stilton books, clothes, underwear
-a pitcher of chocolate milk, a loaf of bread
-an insulated bag with our cellphones and wifi in it (took me 2 days to find the charger of my tablet afterwards)
-a box with 2 rolls of tissue
-a plastic with Donald Duck, teddy, Panda and Nimrod the penguin ("Elijah, leave my Rapunzel doll alone. She'll be safe where she is.")
-another plastic with rubber slippers and bedroom slippers
-yet another plastic with noodles, all the canned goods he could find and a can opener
-the last plastic with a ski mask and winter gloves. ("In case, they will evacuate us all the way to China and it's winter there.")

These he dragged all the way down three flights of stairs, singing loudly, "I will surviiiiive".

Then he returned up the stairs to get his most prized posession (me!) and quoted from After Earth the movie: "Danger is real. But fear is a choice."
