Today, Luke and I went out to run some errands. I was trying to get him dressed and out of the house semi-early so we could be back in time for lunch. He was fighting me the whole time and did not want to get dressed. We ended up leaving probably 20 minutes later than I had wanted.
We were driving down the highway when a firetruck came up behind us with their lights and siren going. I pulled over and told Luke to look because he loves firetrucks. About 2 minutes later, a whole convoy of emergency vehicles were behind us. I pulled over again and let them all fly by us. About a half mile down the road, we came upon a horrible accident! I couldn’t really tell how many vehicles were involved, but I could see an SUV had flipped over and the paramedics were working on someone. The police had me stop while a man and his young boy, probably around 3 years old, crossed the road.
All I could think about was how if we had left when I wanted, that could have been us. Luke was my angel today for being stubborn and procrastinating about getting dressed. I hope everyone involved today is ok. I’ve checked the local news websites tonight, but didn’t see any information. Please send some prayers and good thoughts to all involved.
