the ground will shake soon

I was told by a little girl who will be 3 soon that the ground will shake, my house will break, my roof will break and my couch will break really soon.

Just thought I would share.

Where exactly do you live? Was it just your house or what?

Has she been watching too much of the History Channel/Discovery Channel. they are airing a lot of these mega disastor shows lately.

Rather odd for a 3 year old. Hope she's just precocious.

In Missouri.

No the only thing she will watch on tv is Dora. lol.

I hope she is just precocious too, but.......considering her family, I dont know.

kids speak straight from the spiritual side sometimes and when they say something like this you should take it seriously. Put anything that might fall off shelves somewhere safe. It sounds like a quake will hit and you will suffer loss of some items

No, I think she must have seen a show recently talking about how star Jones and Monique have become spokespersons for a national trampoline chain. She was just exaggerating the size of the tremors it would cause with those two jumping.

Im sure it wont be more than 2-3.5 magnitude, depending on which area youre living in.

But seriously....that is strange. Maybe she was just getting some doomsday prophecy information confused. That happened a lot to me when I was her age, coming from a southern baptist family. They had me scared to death, thinking all kinds of freakish things. Ugh........

Well, Missouri *is* riddled with fault lines. New Madrid is the most well known, but there are hundreds of others across Missouri, Illinois, Tennesee, Kentucky and Arkansas.

It could happen I suppose.

Simple laws of thermodynamics. Or maybe you should be putting a soaker hose around your foundation if the weather has been really dry.

and my couch will break really soon.

Happened to me once when my parents were visiting. My dad sat on the couch, and *crack* a board inside the couch gave way. I guess it couldn't bear the load. Nothing really spooky here, but if the little girl tells you about other children that are living in the corn fields nearby, then be very afraid.
