I hope your family made it through the storm OK . I know it has been a tough road for many of the families. Some have had some extensive damage to their homes.

It has been AMAZING seeing the community pull together. The Farm league pulls from a pocket of Klein, Tomball, and Cy-fair. The stories I am hearing and everything I saw over the past few days is awesome. It solidifies my thoughts that there is NO BETTER place to live! ! After the storm people got out, picked up the mess, helped their neighbors, and then went out and found others that may need assistance. The Saints coaches were driving around with a chain saw looking for stuff to cut up . Thanks guys!! yall were a life saver on my trees !! Families offering up food, drinks, and the ones that had power-- their homes . I am a cup half full guy ; I know the storm STUNK and there are some awful things that happened in Galveston which will take years to fix. However, people getting to connect with their kids, spouses, their friends, and not have the distraction of the internet , video games, and TV was actually a good thing. One parent made a good point -- we may end up with a baby boom 9 months from now ! Most of our local area looks like a storm wasn't even here except for some piles of branches. Power is coming back, gas stations are opening, grocery stores have food, restaurants are open, and people are going back to work. It has only been a few days since it hit, amazing what the people of Houston can accomplish.

I hope your lives are getting back to normal .

It's times like these were we all learn what is truly important in life .
