The date is May 22, 2011. Elly's "very good" graduation day becomes even better when three enormous butterflies appear at her bedroom window; incredibly beautiful, almost other-worldly in their splendor. Her first thought is, "Thank You, Jesus! You know how I love butterflies." But when Elly, then her mother, then other members of the McConnell clan begin to see them in the most unlikely places, their presence begins to feel strangely ominous. And when they appear to be watching the family's every move, it's hard to avoid a growing sense of foreboding. On this perfect spring Sunday, when families across southwest Missouri are celebrating their high school graduations, could these exquisite creatures actually be harbingers of looming tragedy? Then a rare and massive EF5 tornado unexpectedly turns that bright day in May dark and deadly. As the storm of the century bears down, can the McConnell family survive? And in the midst of unspeakable terror and devastation, why are so many children of the tornado seeing butterfly people? Sandi McReynolds is a life-long resident of Southwest Missouri who found herself intrigued by the butterfly people stories that abounded after the monstrous Joplin Tornado of May, 2011; and more than inspired by the generosity and faith of her community. "Butterflies at the Window" is a novel recounting some of those stories based on true and very personal events involving family and friends.

A collection of short stories, The Storms of Life: Butterflies in Tornadoes and Roses in Hurricanes is an inspirational guide to dealing with lifes storms. Life is saturated with storms, situations and circumstances that bring us to our knees and looking for shelter. The storms in our personal lives are comparable to the raging natural storms that radiate from the earth. In no other time in history have natural disasters been so publicized; the same goes for the storms of the human experience. From the exploits of a popular fallen athlete to the transgressions of a charismatic minister, with modern technology we have become accustomed to having front row seats to both natural and human storms. We are sometimes forced to participate in the storms of others no knowing how they will overcome their issues and having not a clue as to how we can overcome our own. Oftentimes we take on our own lifes storms with no guide, no compass, and no shelter; we think we have no protector. But as we travel these roads and seas of life, dealing with storms like hurricanes and tornadoes, we are comforted by knowing that we all have a guide and protector to help deal with the storms of life. But we must learn to trust God!
