See that big blue square?
Did you feel the earthquake last night? 5.6!! Wow! It was THAT big and NOTHING happened. We didn’t have a THING fall off the walls or shelves.
Ryan and I were just sitting down to dinner when it happened. I heard the rumble and it didn’t register in my mind what was going on, but he shot up out of his seat and headed to the front door. I realized then what was going on and jumped up as well. We both stood in the doorway as the quake continued.
After the shaking stopped, we stayed in the doorway because our building was swaying. I didn’t want to move until everything stopped. I wasn’t really scared because I had been through earthquakes before, but this one was much larger and gave me a bit of concern.
The funniest part about the event is the reaction of my cats. Both of them spent the night sniffing everything in the apartment to make sure everything was ok. How cute!

I don’t have kids, but I still love the books I read as a child. I think it would be fun to go to this exhibit at The National Center for Children’s Illustrated Literature.
