Many Miracles

As I sit to write of the miracles yesterday, my heart is still touched and tears still come. It was just about this time yesterday morning when we received a call to come and pick the girls up at school-there had been a bus accident. At that time we had no idea if it was their bus or not-all we knew was that the girls were ok. As the day went on and more information came out, the miracles mounted.
Miracle #1: there were only 5 children on the bus, rather than the bus the girls rode on which was full of children.
Miracle #2: the required 5 point harness seat belt that every child wore! Every child was kept securely in place, shaken up and bruised, but safe!
Miracle #3: the fuel tanker truck involved had just unloaded and was empty.
Miracle #4: the car directly behind the bus carried 2 local EMT's who immidiatly sprang into action.
Miracle #5: you only have to look at the pictures from the accident to realize the miriacle it is that the driver and teacher aide survived. Both are in the hospital still, but alive and expected to fully recover!
Thank you for all the concerned phone calls we received checking on the girls. Friends and family are definatly another Miracle that we have!
