A Year Later
A year ago today, our lives changed drastically.
Nothing can ever prepare you for the tragedy of a tornado.
You never really get over something that traumatic.
A year later, I still get cold chills when someone mentions the tornado that hit.
I still get anxious when we get storms.
I watched the place that feels like home be absolutely demolished.
I’ve grown up here. I’ve started raising my baby here.
It’s the only job I’ve ever known.
I’ve made friends that feel just like family here.
Thirteen years of my life have been here. Six days a week for thirteen years.
I’ve watched this place grow and become something truly beautiful.
Then I’ve seen it in ruins.
I’ve seen the good and the ugly.
Now I’m going to see it at it’s best.
The place that I have poured countless hours into will be beautiful again.
It’s a long, hard road, but it’s one of transformation.
There’s hope in the breaking. We’ve been tried and tested over the past year.
Every single one of us is changed.
I’ve watched my father lead with determination and purpose.
I’ve worked next to my husband and brother while we pick up the pieces.
I’ve realized the people I’ve worked with for so many years are my family.
I’ve rejoiced in the rebuilding.
I’ve cried at the thought of taking some of this for granted.
A year has taught so much….
Perseverance, trust, joy, pain, fear, love, patience, hope, friendship, beauty.
We are blessed beyond measure and we never realized it until we were torn.
Today, we are well on the way to recovery. Four of our docks have been replaced. They are bigger, better, and more beautiful now than they have ever been. My coworkers have been an amazing team and I am proud to be a part of it. We had so many bring food and help us out for weeks after we were hit and I am so appreciative of their support and kindness. It really meant so much to all of us. It could all happen again tomorrow, but we don’t take anything for granted now. We still have a ways to go, but we’re getting there. Every day I thank the Lord for blessing me with this job and with these people.
