A Visit from Max

If you live in Houston, you know we were hit with massive rains today.  I walked into Kroger this morning after dropping Finley off at school, while I was checking out the storm had gotten very intense.  So intense that the power went out at the grocery store.  I thought it would be best to wait out the rain, but after 10 minutes, I realized it wasn't letting up anytime soon.  I loaded up the car, got totally drenched, drove by Finley's school to make sure they had power, then headed home to dry off.  I got a call from Courtney when I got back home and she had been stranded at an ATM machine in town on the way back from dropping off Max.  I told her I would be happy to pick Max up after school if she was still trapped in the floodwaters, but I never expected that would actually happen.  Turns out...it did!  So Max came over to play this afternoon and Finley was not very pleasant.  She hadn't napped at all during school (shocker) and was just being a pill with him.  He kept asking her to share, it was so sweet, but she wasn't having any of it. Luckily, the floodwaters receded and Courtney was able to rescue Max from the storm that Finley was creating here.
