On January 28, 2014, Birmingham, Alabama fell under a civil emergency due to unanticipated, severe winter weather that included snow, ice and freezing temperatures. Many parents in the Birmingham metropolitan area, including myself, were separated from our children. Some children slept in schools, some parents made it to daycare where they slept with their children. Our family was comparatively lucky; my husband was able to reach our 2-1/2-year-old twins through to the kindness and support of many people along the way.
Rather than recount our entire two-day journey, I\’d like to simply thank those who helped reunite our family and reach home safely.
