Just a quick note to say that although Cary and I are both a little overwhelmed and concerned about the plane crash, which was about five miles from our house, we are all fine.
I'm just trying start focusing on something else, but I end up sitting here in front of the computer checking various websites for updates.
Even in the face of this tragedy it makes me glad to see that the firefighters (who are all volunteer -- something like 7 different companies responded to the scene) and all the other people involved in handling the aftermath seem to be doing an amazing job.
The children are completely unfazed, high on Valentine's Day candy, and at the moment I don't even care if they want to eat every last piece (just don't tell them I said so).
UPDATE: We lost a neighbor on the plane. While less of a personal loss for our family, the deceased was our babysitter's father, and she is just the loveliest, most delightful girl. I can't imagine what she is going through.

So glad you're ok. I know this will ripple through town a lot. Take care of yourselves.
The tool told me about your neighbor....so sorry to hear that. My friends all knew about 6-10 people on the plane and as sad as it is...another 60 second and it could have been a different story.
