Because God really thinks I am up to the challenge we had a car accident yesterday! My oldest son has a broken nose from hitting the seat in front of him (he had put the shoulder belt behind him ) and my neck is really sore this morning. But other than that, we are all fine. We have no idea what will happen with the car yet, the front end is pretty mangled, there was oil leaking and the firemen were cutting all kinds of wires and lines in the engine. Please pray that we get through this as quickly and easily as possible. And please pray for Benny, he is really worried that everyone will make fun of his rather distorted face, despite our reassurances to the contrary. It's been a heck of a week. Thanks so much!

*****************************************
I just put pictures up on my blog of the car and of Benny. We are all doing well today, Benny is sore but he is on the mend.

*****************************************
Hi All! Physically, everyone is doing fine now. We are waiting to hear about the fate of our vehicle. We would actually love for them to total our truck so that we can go back to a smaller, more fuel efficient mini-van. In reality, we know that is not likely because our Durango was only a year old and still quite valuable. So right now I am praying for God's will to be done and that I can be a big girl about it . Please pray that everything works out the best way possible. We really are very lucky that everyone was basically okay and that we only hit a tree, not a person. Thank you for all of your prayers, they always lift us up!

Blessings,
Betsie

Oh my stars, Betsie...it has been quite a week! I'm so relieved that you're all ok, but this must still be a huge stress! I'm praying for all of you, and for your practical needs as well!

Goodness sakes! How scary. I'm glad you both will be OK. Praying you will both be feeling back to normal soon.

Blessings,
