What a month October was for us.
It brought many different things to be concerned with and pray about and then be thankful.
Our baby grand daughter was in a little accident and had to be checked out in the hospital. She is fine.
It was scary as it involved a cross walk, a car and a tiny baby.
Then our grandson was in a car accident, again he was rattled around but safe and not injured.
The car was totaled.
Our oldest granddaughter was in Montana and heading home in her car to Oregon.
This grandma was praying and not excited for her to drive that far alone from Montana to Oregon.
Well, she was driving on the freeway and lost control of her car and rolled it a few times.
The police at the scene said she should NOT be walking away without a scratch.
They ambulanced her to the hospital where she was checked out and stayed overnight.
The company that she worked for kept her safe and she was able to fly home with nothing but her cat.
Pretty sad when you have nothing. All of her belongings were thrown on the road.
There was another car incident that was not planned and injured our granddaughter’s boyfriend.
Then my husband hit a storage shed with his old car and the insurance totaled it.
What a weird and strange month.
We are ready to move on into November and let the holiday planning begin.
We had our anniversary last weekend. Fifty-one years.

Pretty hard to believe that these young ‘not yet adults’ married and stayed for that long.
It’s pretty remarkable when we think of all the life changes, we have gone through together.
What a month October was for us. Not one I want to repeat.
We came out stronger, believing in prayer and remaining thankful for the many blessings we have witnessed.
