an angel watching over....

michael was in a car accident yesterday afternoon. the boy was extremely lucky! he definitely had someone watching over him. he swerved to miss a deer and over corrected getting back on the road - rolled his car 3 times. the seat belt or seat broke because he ended up in the backseat. it took the jaws of life to get him out (took about 2-2 1/2 hours) and he was home the same night - sore, but without a scratch. thank you!!!!!

need to make the booster seats (and car seats) a bit more comfy....poor thing!!!
