Fertilizer Plant

Last week was a sad day for a town called West, Texas.  We woke up to the news that a fertilizer plant had exploded and many people were dead and injured.  While I was rushing around getting everything ready for the day, Mike was praying with the boys at the breakfast table.  He told them that a fertilizer plant had exploded and basically destroyed a small town in Texas.  Then they spent some time praying for the people of West.

Later that afternoon, I was watching the news with Brody.  All of the sudden he goes, "OH!!!!  That's a fertilizer plant!!!"  I looked at him confused and he said, "This morning Daddy said that a fertilizer plant exploded and destroyed a whole town!  I had never heard of a plant that could just explode and do that...and I didn't know what kind of plant a fertilizer plant was.  It's not a plant like a flower...it's a plant like a factory building!  I get it."

I sure am glad he got that one figured out!  Can you imagine the fear of walking through the woods behind our house?!  I can hear it now, "Hold on guys!  We need to figure out which one of these is a fertilizer plant!  We don't want to explode!"
