Guardian Angels

During sunday school yesterday scott found me in the hall watching after Brody Baker. I love watching that little guy. He is such a cutie and he makes being far away from grandkids hurt a little less. Anyway....Scott said "Kevin just called" I was excited and said "Stacie must be in labor" But the look on Scott's face was not excitement. I said "What's going on?" Scott said "Kevin was in an accident on the freeway but he's okay." My heart dropped. Perhaps leading with "Kevin is okay but was in an accident" might have been better. I listened to the details and got chills. I called Kevin....knowing he was okay....but needing to hear my son's voice. Today Kevin sent me a link to the local news....and I got chills again. Snow flurries turned to a complete white out on the interstate within minutes. Kevin was doing fine....he has experience driving in snow. The other drivers from Albuquerque don't have much experience with winter driving conditions. He was hit from behind...and it caused him to lose control and spin a 180 and go across four lanes of traffic and facing oncoming traffic. It's a miracle he wasn't hit by other vehicles as he slid across those lanes. The lady that hit him was clipped by a semi right after but Kevin was already clear of that. The news said there were 26 accidents on that small stretch of freeway. All kevin had was a cracked bumper.....not a scratch or bruise. We thanked the Lord that night in our prayers for his protection. I know he had angels watching over him that day. And what a blessing that a very pregnant Stacie was not in the car with him. I told Scott that we are reaping the blessings of having a son serving a mission....and we are reaping them all at once. We are taking advantage of every day that he has left. I have seen the hand of the Lord in so many ways since Chris has been gone. Thank heavens for Miracles!
