Families and the Flood!

Water, Water, Water. Dirty and polluting. Devastating properties.Higher and higher it goes. Having a family of four or more must be incredibly difficult. The kids would have to be transported by boat, back and forth for clean water and food as well as any activities. The family may miss church or have to stay indoors as the pumps outside pumping the water back over the sandbags ( costing tons of money each year as well)the water may still flood the basement or soak the land surrounding the house causing it to cave! . It kills me to see that when living off your land the farmers can watch their crops, that feed their families and put clothes on their backs, being completely destroyed and watching their kids grow up in fear of the annual flood. Would you be able to watch your way of life literally go down the drain year after year? I know for a fact that I wouldn't. More and more money, the amount farmers will give to save their crops each year is tremendous. People say the the world revolves around money but I think that money revolves around the floods.
