I'm sure my husband's pretty happy we weren't in Los Angeles right about now.
A 4.6 magnitude earthquake at 12:58 AM on August 9 magnitude occurred 3 miles NNW of Chatsworth, CA

About Me
- MetaMommy
- Los Angeles, CA, United States
- I consider myself lucky to be a stay at home parent, which has given me the opportunity to learn about the world of my kids, MetaBoy (3 years) and MetaGirl (14 months). When I have a rare spare moment, I do things that interest me, thereby helping me feel normal and happy. As an accountant in my professional life, money and all related topics are a source of interest. Food has become a huge source of interest as I've become diligent in keeping my family's health a top priority, what with food recalls, shady ingredients in processed foods, and trying to go organic when possible. I love trying out new recipes, as long as they're delicious, not too fussy, and healthy. But hey, I'm interested it lots of things, so you never know when I'll go off on a tangent...like here :-) Feel free to email me with any comments, questions, or anything at: metamommy at gmail dot com.

My husband says we cuddled during the quake, during which he considered getting up and going to our kids, then debating which kid he should go to, and eventually deciding that he would check on them if anything in our room fell over (nothing did). I woke up when the alarm went off remembering nothing about an earthquake!
Aw...that's sweet. Looks like he was in definite daddy-mode. With kids as young as ours, their safety is priority number one, so I can imagine what was going through his head.
I suspect if it would have been a bit more serious, you would have woken up, too. You're mind was just unwilling to register it. It sounds like you were just that tired!
