Two tiny babies were placed inside a bathtub as a powerful tornado tore toward their grandmother’s home. But when the storm struck, it ripped the bathtub from the floor and carried it away with both babies inside. When their grandmother emerged from the wreckage, the bathtub was gone, and so were her grandchildren. She began desperately searching through the destruction, praying they were still alive. It happened in Dawson Springs, Kentucky. Clara Lutz was caring for her two grandsons, 15-month-old Kaden and 3-month-old Dallas. As the tornado approached, she surrounded them with blankets and pillows inside the bathtub and placed a Bible beside them. Moments later, the house began shaking violently. Clara tried to hold onto the bathtub, but the storm ripped it from her hands. Debris struck her head as her home was torn apart, leaving almost nothing but the foundation. When the winds finally stopped, Clara couldn’t find either child. As she prayed for their safety, two sheriff’s deputies and two local men began searching the wreckage. Then one of the deputies heard something. A baby was crying. They followed the sound to an overturned bathtub lying in the yard. Two men lifted it while the others reached underneath, and there they were. Both little boys were alive. The babies were rushed back to their grandmother. Little Dallas needed hospital care for a head injury, but both boys survived. Clara had lost her entire home, but the two little lives she’d prayed so desperately for were safely back in her arms. Sometimes we all need a reminder that miracles still happen. May this family’s story bring a little hope to your day.
