The value of everything

This has been a crazy week. My dad and his wife lost their house to a fire last Monday. They had only been there for a year but had accomplished alot in making it their own. I have been thanking God that no one was home. It has however been difficult to realize all of the pieces of our history as a family that are now gone. Things that we will never be able to get back like my dads reel to reels of him singing when he was in high school or some of the videos of me singing in high school. Of course those are just things and I am eternally grateful that my dad and Tammy are ok. It is still painful for all of us though. I can't help but worry about them and how this is affecting them. It is overwhelming to think of all of the things they now have to replace to rebuild their lives. Please say a little prayer for them.
