Rough morning

I was awakened prior to 7 this morning (1/2 before normal wake-up time) by JC letting me know that she had heard her little brother vomiting. Sure enough, HT was sick, but fortunately had managed not to get sick in his bed! I brought him down to the couch and was working on getting him settled when the phone rang. The phone ringing at 7AM is never a good thing! It was my wonderful husband, letting me know that he was okay but was in a car accident. I hate that 45 minute drive to work! Apparently a teen had left her car parked on the blind side of a hill because she left her cell phone in the house. Fortunately, she doesn't have any major injuries either. I called my mom right away and she threw clothes on and began the drive down to our house because I obviously can't take a vomiting child anywhere. My mom's drive is about 40 minutes so in the meantime, my wonderful husband got a ride in the tow truck back to town, and after Mom arrived I took the older two to pick him and see the car before I dropped them off at school. Due to the age of the vehicle and the fact that the airbags deployed, we are fairly certain it's totaled. My parents very generously offered us the use of their third vehicle, so my mom took my husband back to their house to pick that up. After they had been gone about 30 minutes, the school called to ask me to please come and pick up JR who had just vomited at school. My wonderful next door neighbor came to stay with HT so I could dash up to the school. It's been a heck of a morning! We are very, very lucky though! My wonderful husband is okay, the other driver is not seriously hurt, and her insurance will take care of the car. The kids will be fine, and we are so blessed to have such a large group of family, friends and neighbors that love and support us. Even though, I'm a little drained at this point, I can't help but feel good about life and all the blessings we have!
