Two of the most horrifying moments of my life occurred yesterday.
Horrifying moment #1: (After rolling several times in my jeep on a highway county road), turning around to check on your child only to find the jeep completely empty.
Horrifying moment #2: (After finding your child across the road on the shoulder, still strapped into their car seat, holding him, letting him bleed all over), the look my 17 year old brother gives me: sheer terror and shock all rolled into one.
Those two moments I will never forget in entire life.
Three of the biggest miracles occurred yesterday too.
Miracle #1: I walked away with a few bruises and scrapes.
Miracle #2: My baby brother walked away with a broken nose.
Miracle #3: After being life flighted to Salt Lake for precautionary measures, John Wayne walked away with a few scratches on his head, a scrape on his left eye, and a grape-sized bruise on his lower back.
No internal damage, no broken bones.
Words cannot describe my gratitude.
Words cannot describe my relief.
Words cannot describe the feelings I'm feeling right now.
It's almost like I'm experiencing so many different ones at the moment, I cannot begin to deal with just one.
All I know is there's someone out there watching over me.
Hug your loved ones.
