Thank all of you so much for your kind words, thoughs, prayers, and extra supplies. I do hope to get back into the cake business sooner or later. They are taking the house down tomorrow it is very painful to even think about. We are very thankful that we were not at home whenever the fire started. The insurance and fire inspecters are saying it started in the attic by the back door in the kitchen. We were not able to get anything out of the house. I have a 5 & 7 year old and lost all their little baby things and everything. That kind of stuff is what bothers me the most losing. Plus, having to watch my boys walk through what is left of the house looking for just one thing to hold on to. My oldest son found three YuGiOh cards and was happy as could be. We are making it now. We just take things day by day. Please pray for us this weekend as we watch our house go.
Also, many of you have asked about replacing my cake things. I would appreciate any help. You can PM me or email me at [email protected]
Thank you SO much for your help,
The love & support on this board is so heart-warming.
