a grand bit of excitement

Hey Mary, their was a fire in our building last night in a vacant unit on the 2ND floor.. we live on the 7Th.... No one was hurt but when we went to evacuate there was a lot of smoke and the girls were pretty scared because I was flipping out.. of course... :)

Anyway, A keeps waiting for an alarm to go off.. We were back in our place by 7 but she didn't fall asleep until 12.. If you guys could just talk to her about it if she wants to and reassure her that she is safe.. Their were about 20 different trucks, ambulances and police with lights going for about 2 1/2 hours.. She was very aware..

The lights are still out in certain parts of the building and it smells like smoke everywhere including our place.. Their is also smoke that collected on dust all over our apartment and A See's in and is worried.. J was going to try to take care of most of it today before she got home...

I am going to contact the fire department down the street from school to see if they can visit kindercare and see if that helps..

She will probably be very tired and a little upset..

Thanks,

T [my daughter]

p.s.

A is my granddaughter and J is my son-in-law
