God... that's one of my worst fears. When I was in junior high my family was living in an apartment while our house was being built. There was a fire in the apartment below us, and if my Dad hadn't been getting ready for work at like 4:30 a.m. we might not have gotten out in time.
And of course, once your family is safely outside, THEN you start worrying about everything you own... :(
That's so sad, life is full of tragedy but I am glad they are safe. I am so sorry to read this...
Fire is one thing I fear in the house. We had one once many years ago, woken up with a friend saying, hey your house is on fire. Luckily, I was able to extinguish it before it spread. Bad memory...
Fire is pretty terrifying, one of those you-can't-control-this things. We're all still a bit in shock. And, too, aside from the danger, something no longer exists in this world.
Our long time friends/neighbors' house burned pretty much to the ground last night.
We stood in the cold and the water.
