Brick and Stick

On CNN on Monday, a reporter was interviewing a grandfather who survived the previous weekend's tornado in Oklahoma.  I loved this part of the story: 

As to what treasured mementos he hopes to find among the wreckage, Lord (the grandfather) said he already had everything he needed.  "I found them. My son, my daughter, my son-in-law, my grandbabies, my wife," he said. "Everything else is brick and stick, and they're all easily replaced."

What a fantastic reminder about what is important. God bless Mr. Lord and all of those impacted by the tornadoes. 

Everything else is just brick and stick.
