Seeing is Believing ...


And then today -- Sunday -- Dan & I just needed to make the trip to their house ...


 
 

 just to make sure they are all okay ...

anxiety
soreness
apprehension
 



... but in the middle of it all ...

thankfulness

it could have had a completely different ending ...

 
 




Still need prayers for the days ahead ...

physical -- mental -- emotional
insurance ... replacement van



Thankfulness to God & His angels for
protecting our kids ...

And in a Flash...



Weekends are getting pretty busy in our household...
Jacqueline & the grands come down Thursday afternoons for Tag's karate class followed by Lucy's two-hour intensive dance classes.
Then it's homeschooling on Fridays followed by two more intensive dance classes for Lucy.
 

 
 Lucy & Tag worked on some Halloween projects this week.



 



And then gave their Grandad a lesson this morning on making spiders...
then back to their house to get ready for their fall festival on post...
..

Dan & I were doing some outside work when my cell phone rang.  It was Michael's phone... but Jacqueline on the other line. 
"First I need to say that the kids and I are okay but... we've been in a wreck."
I sunk. 


















They were rear-ended at such a high impact that forced them into the vehicle in front of them.



Lucy & Tag were in the back seat excited to go the military fall festival -- dressed up in their costumes and looking festive.

And then the impact...

scared ...
shaken ...
extreme anxiety

Please keep our kids in your prayers ...
they had waited for several months on the transfer of their donated van -- and now the wreck...

God is our refuge and strength,
A very present help in trouble.
Psalm 46:1
