1st Off... We're OKAY!!

Today we (Chris, Me & Alex) were driving down Ming Ave. heading home to meet up with my mom to then all go to Hanford for our aunt's 85th birthday party.. Didn't make it. Instead, the car in front of us stopped suddenly, causing us to stop suddenly. At this point I thought we were going to be fine.. Situation done.. Unfortunately the car behind us couldn't stop.. She hit us (very hard) we hit the truck in front of us and he hit the car in front of him. It all happened so fast.  Our air bags deployed and Alex was very scared.  We asked each other if we were okay and then quickly got out of the car. I  think I watch too much TV, but I'm always afraid that the car will burst into flames or another person not paying attention will hit us again.. So I wanted to get us and Alex out of there.  

In the car that hit us was 7-8 year old Mia who I grabbed out of the car and the 3 of us went to the side of the street out of harms way. The mother had to stay there until the fireman cleared her to get out. Her bags didn't deploy and they were scared she had a neck injury. The other people were okay (a little sore) but it was just our two cars that had to be towed away... My poor Highlander.  :(  

It's been a big day... Coming home from it all, Alex has been difficult. Not on purpose, but we're just both tired and too sore to play with him. He is perfectly fine. That car seat we have is a champ..  Yeah for Costco buying good products.. 

Chris is tired and sore. We're going to go to the Dr.s tomorrow just to make sure. 

I on the other hand am just not sure what's happening in my life.. I guess God's been talking to me about things. Maybe today He was yelling.. I'm not really sure about what.  I usually feel guilty and know what He wants.. I'm thinking today was just just a coincidence but I have never believed in coincidence.. I've always believed that every thing happens for a reason. Good or bad.. It's what we do to handle situations that matter. Maybe this has nothing to do with me and only to do with the 3 other people involved.. That's fine with me.. (My friend suggested I watch "The 5 People You Meet in Heaven"..  But I can't help to think that I'm bad luck. Why am I always in the wrong place at the wrong time?  My friend jokes about the chronicles of Lacey, but it's not funny anymore. I don't like almost dying with Alex in the car 2 times in 1 month.  Not to mention baby #2 and my wonderful husband..  

Anyhow, here are some pictures of my poor, poor car..  :(  Please know that we are okay and just home resting.. God was with us, AGAIN!!!!  

Here is Alex keeping himself entertained while we wait for the police. And Yes, we get a new car seat.. It's just the rules. Car crash? new car seat.. Just in case.
