Scary and Sad

 Today the scariest thing ever happened to me. I was in a car accident. I am okay, just a little banged up. My most wonderful car, however, is not. :-( I could not think of a more appropriate post than a picture of my car, before it died. My little sister told me my car went to heaven. Now, I do know that cannot happen, but it was sweet anyway! R.I.P Red Baron. 

My little car. Oh, you were old in years but young in spirit. Not even a hundred thousand miles did you have. I will miss all the drives home from work in the summer, feeling so free from everything. I will never forget you. I know I will get a new vehicle, but I never can replace you!

I am so glad I have these pictures of my favorite memories. This was Christmas day 2011- it was 50 degrees! I had not even owned my car for a month. I got it washed and we drove around town with Christmas music blaring after Church.

The Lord was watching over me, and I am so thankful for the way He protected me. No one was hurt. Everything is going to be okay. He protected me beyond my belief. One doctor told me I was lucky. I said, "I am not lucky. God is good!"

There were multiple good things that came out of today. #1: I was able to see how many people truly love me. It meant so much to realize (once again) that I have so much support. #2 I was able to make friends with a very nice lady at the hospital who seemed in need of encouragement! #3 I am hoping that my attitude during all of this will give me a chance to share why I am different from others.

Thank you for all of the prayers and cinnamon rolls and support! Thank you for reading! (FYI: we are still going to the zoo tomorrow! I will have to do a post in the morning and then one on Saturday night!)
