问题     A sheriff’s deputy follows a big tornado. He uses his camera to record his trip. Trees and fallen power lines get in his way. He sees a tornado in the distance.
    Robert Williams and his family climb into a closet and get ready for the very worst minutes of their lives.
    Robert Williams tells his family’s story. The tornado tore took the roof off the house, and the walls fell down. It pulled the kids up and away. A trailer landed on them, trapped him and killed his wife. Williams’ wife died in his arms. There wasn’t anything he could do.
    His daughter, Amy, her husband and their ten-month-old baby girl were gone. Amy didn’t know where her baby went. The tornado tossed them in different directions. She got a shirt and put it on her head because it was bleeding. A lady found her and took her to the police. Amy got a ride to a hospital.
    The deputy started looking for the baby, "Something caught the corner of my eye. I looked and I couldn’t see anything. And when I looked again, I could see there was a baby, curled around the base of the tree, down there, had her little face in the mud." It was wonderful to hear her start crying.
    The baby was reunited with her mother in a hospital. Now they are staying in a motel with her dad. She says, "I just knew everybody was dead and I was all alone, I was so happy when they found her.  It’s just a miracle. There’s surely nothing else you can say about it."
    Amy lost her mother, her husband is in critical condition, but alive. And except for a few bruises the baby is doing just fine.
