poor little silver


I was in an accident tonight. I was leaving to get Nate from the train, and I stopped at this stop sign and looked and I saw a car but it was a long way away, so I proceeded into the intersection. Somehow the car was instantly upon me and crashed into the front left corner of our car. Poor little Silver. I was shaken up but totally fine and thankfully the people that crashed into me were nice. We exchanged info while Nate’s dad picked him up from the train and drove him to ‘the scene’ where our car was still crashed in the road. After we cleared the cars out of the road a cop showed up (a half hour after Nate called 911 and was put on hold) and took down our info and stated to me, “Well, it was clearly your fault. Failure to yield.” Just the words you want to hear from a cop at the scene of an auto accident. So now we’re facing the task of insurance, towing, the fun of getting to work with no car etc… I’m still a bit shaken but trying to not stress out know that God has absolute control over all situations and so thankful to Him that there were no injuries to people, just cars. Like Nate's dad kept reminding me, it could have been a lot worse and the worst thing we’re having to deal with right now is paperwork, some money and logistics of getting from here to there. Not that bad.
