Close Call

We had a very eventful drive to church today.

My Dad's new place has a chapel on the ground floor. So, when its our turn to take Dad to church the girls and I meet Dad there. The only downside is its at 12 noon and Ella always falls asleep.

Today we were headed to Dad's and were one merge away from exiting off the freeway.

We were far enough back but there was a problem when the cars ahead of us merged. Car one merged but there wasn't enough room so the car in that lane tried to merge instead of break. Car two didn't see the red van in that lane. All I can do is thank God that driver was so good. He veered left - right - left - right. I could hear his tires squealing. And due to his good defensive moves, no one was hit. I had slowed down but had to hit the brakes once or twice.

The next exit was ours and I kept saying, Thank you Jesus. The girls said it too. Elizabeth said thanks for saving my life and Ella said thanks for saving my heart. (The funny thing though was Ella was talking about a jewelry box shaped like a heart that she bought at a garage sale yesterday.)

But, I did tell the girls we needed to go to Mass to thank God for watching out for us. I am sure they both thought it in their heads before they fell asleep during church. LOL

Hope you were safe this weekend too.
