Our family life is different because we lost our home and have lived with my mother for almost a year now. My family is still going through Hurricane Rita and the after effects will carry on for ever for us. We just started building a new home and hope to be in it by Christmas. Best wishes to all who sufferd losses throughout the hurricane.
