Mother's Day Miracle

On a stormy Mother's Day, Jennifer was driving home from lunch with Will in the back seat when she stopped to get a branch out of the road. Before she got out of the car, a giant tree fell across the vehicle. The tree fell from left to right with the largest trunk impacting just behind the back seat. We are praising God that neither Will or Jennifer were injured at all. They remained in the car until the police arrived because there were electric lines down as well.
You can see there was damage to the entire vehicle. The driver's side where both Jennifer and Will were received the least damage. In fact, the driver's door was the only one that would open. The impact was so great that the rear axle and frame were bent so the wheels toe out.



Dennis was working Sunday afternoon but was home later that night.



Will really enjoyed his time in a police car as well as all the other emergency equipment and personnel that responded. Jennifer was shaken a bit by the event but she is fine and rejoicing in the goodness of God.

WOW.....

We too Praise God for his protection. Jen, you were a great MOM in this trial for little Will.

Oh too bad for the Forester...... do you get a new one or some other "protective shield car?"

Thanks Lord for protecting our family.

PS Didn't know about the electricity danger and having to stay in the car. Wow.

Looking into the replacement now. Gene was generous and we are currently using his truck as a second vehicle until we figure out what's next.
