(Jerusalem Post) Tovah Lazaroff - Miri Tamano was sound asleep when the warning sirens rang out at 3:43 a.m. to alert residents of an incoming Gaza-launched rocket. "I heard the alarm. I thought it was dream. When I came to my senses, I hurried to take the children to the security room." Her sister Ora said that Tamano was sleeping on the first floor, ran up the stairs, and woke her three sons, ages 8, 10 and 12, who all slept in different rooms. "Two of them didn't want to wake up and she had to drag them out of bed." The rocket fell through the roof and landed in one of the second story bedrooms. The two-story home was completely destroyed. "I no longer have a home," Tamano said. "An alert mother did what she needed to do and saved her family," said neighbor Nurit Bar-Khanin.
