a lesson learned

I've got to keep this short...but let me just tell you that God is SO GOOD and is our PROTECTOR!!

"'Because he loves me,' says the LORD, 'I will rescue him;
I will protect him, for he acknowledges my name.'" (Psalm 91:14)

When leaving a friend's house this morning, my older three boys went to get into the van before Caden and me.  Before I knew it, Kyle ran into the house and told me that Ian had just MOVED our van.  I ran outside, and YES, there was our van sitting in the driveway across from where it was.  Somehow, Ian got his foot on the break and moved it into neutral.  It backed out of the driveway, across the street, and up into the other driveway.   

All of the "what-ifs" are still just flying through my head. 

I just praise God that the boys are safe, the van is safe, and everything around the van is unharmed.  I praise God that no one was walking down the sidewalk or driving down the road.  Praise God for protecting my boys!


So, the lesson learned is NEVER allow my kids to be in my van alone.
