posted by Michelle on august 2, 2005We ended up with a very similar scene though ours included scared cats along with the boy.
posted by Jo in Boston on august 2, 2005I know! What a storm last night! Aww.. I hope your boys were okay...That picture is so cute with him covering his ears... I have to admit, I was doing the same thing for a while after watching it for a bit :)
posted by Dani on august 2, 2005That's a great picture. And I love it that in the midst of a thunderstorm, you were documenting the occurance to share with us.
posted by Jody on august 2, 2005As we were listening to the storm, I told Jason: "I hope this doesn't wake up the boys and scare them" Literally in the middle of saying that, there was an ENORMOUS clap of thunder, and I added: "But I'm pretty sure they're awake now!" Hope they weren't too rattled!
posted by shannon on august 2, 2005It was a wild storm! I'm not sure I've ever been in anything quite like it.

posted by purlpower on august 2, 2005What a great picture. When they were little, I had 1 kidala that LOVED lightening & thunder and 1 that HATED it. Not that we get much lightening here, but it sure brings back memories of my grandparents' farm.
posted by Diane on august 2, 2005It was definitely a wild storm! I was driving from Boston to NH as it started... almost the whole way, I saw TONS of lightning but no thunder or rain. Those started just as I got off the highway. Weird.
posted by Kat with a K on august 2, 2005Now you'll have the kids ask if stuff works again. And remind you of the time the lights went out.
Good family folklore.
posted by Steph on august 2, 2005What an amazing photo! I love snuggling up watching a thunderstorm. Good family times.
posted by Sarah on august 2, 2005Great Photo! I was trying to look through your archives last night and wondering what was happening - yikes!
posted by jo on august 2, 2005Wow. I am sure your kids love to snuggle up with Mom and Dad.
posted by emy on august 2, 2005Wow. The lightning is literally bright as day, except blue.
posted by Ina on august 2, 2005Been there....cute picture.
posted by michele on august 2, 2005scout made it through about 10 minutes of the storm and i kept saying "well that outta wake her" and then "c'mon, that will wake her" and then when i was about to run into her room convinced that she must have stopped breathing, i hear the wonderful shriek "mommmmmmie, i scared"
