I think things happen for a reason, and situations like this happen to help us remember what life's priorities are.<br /><br />Hugs and happy holidays to you and your family!Alison at Wardrobe Oxygenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15891869859939786737noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8482270755935730046.post-71072242108251145502010-12-22T18:20:34.342-08:002010-12-22T18:20:34.342-08:00So glad all is well and no one was hurt, Hush!
...So glad all is well and no one was hurt, Hush! <br /><br />@Jac, I was at a choral concert the other day and ended up spending half of it in the basement of a church because my two year old son wouldn't sit still or be quiet... I have, historically, been one to look at the negative and bitch about how I've been wronged. This particular time, however, I found myself listening to the holiday singers through the floor and thinking, "I am so thankful that I have this little healthy, rambunctious boy who I get to spend time with." <br /><br />It doesn't always happen, but when it does, it's like a breath of fresh air.bluenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8482270755935730046.post-70458692955416996692010-12-22T09:05:36.613-08:002010-12-22T09:05:36.613-08:00I try to be grateful all the time (not always succ...I try to be grateful all the time (not always successfully). I recently read The Happiness Project which helped me reframe my thinking on a few of these issues. Now, instead of lamenting to my husband that I HAD to hold DD all night because she wouldn't sleep - I am thankful that I GET to hold DD all night. I know that this time is fleeting. <br /><br />So happy your husband is okay. I've had two brushes with death in the last six months. If nothing else, it's good for getting the priorities straight.Jac.noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8482270755935730046.post-85764021971127339962010-12-21T21:38:43.048-08:002010-12-21T21:38:43.048-08:00I'm glad DH is OK!

I guess it's a product of my age and becoming a parent but it has helped me appreciate the moments more and pull myself out of a funk a lot more quickly when I realize all that I have that I'm taking for granted, my living breathing self for starters. I wish you and your family a very happy holiday spent together!!mom2boyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00784436196685595115noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8482270755935730046.post-18600481235049254222010-12-21T11:00:24.668-08:002010-12-21T11:00:24.668-08:00So glad your DH was okay and that no one else was ...So glad your DH was okay and that no one else was in the car!

Shit happens, and it has to happen to SOMEBODY, you know?<br /><br />I'm so glad DH is ok and that the circumstances were that no one else was in the car, particularly your kids. Phew.
