I Appreciate My Life So Much..................

If ever a reason to blog at 11PM this would be the one. Today I picked Mikey up at my mom's and as we were leaving we were stopped at the four way stop in Woodlake. The only four way stop. So I stop and the car coming toward me goes first, then the cars on my right and left proceed to go, then it's my turn. So I proceed to finally go, and as I look to my right I see a car hauling ass, and what do you know they are not stopping at the stop sign. I just freak and slam on my breaks as hard as I can. They flew and stopped right in front of me, about an inch away from my car. I was freaked, if I would have been in a hurry and not paid attention they would have T-boned my car right on the side that Mikey was sitting. So as we were both stopped in the intersection the lady would not even look at me as I yelled and called her a Stupid F&^%$#@ B&^%$!!!! Then she just proceeded to drive off. I was just shaking, mad and called Mike crying at the same time. I have never come so close to being in a wreck, and it wasn't so much that I cared about myself, I just knew my baby was in the car and could not let anything happen to him. I just wish someone would have been with me so I could have followed the bitch and ripped her out of her car and screamed at her and tell her that being stupid and irresponsible like that is what kills innocent people and children. She was not an old woman or a young girl she seemed looked like a normal 30 something woman with her husband/boyfriend. If the woman had any decency she would have got out and asked if we were okay. It was a pretty hard jerk the way I put the breaks on. Mikey just kept asking what happen. Then I explained to him what had happened. I told him it was a very scary situation, and he said "Mommy I was not scared, I am a man, and men don't get scared. If we would have been in a crash and I got hurt I would try not to be scared. I would be sad if I had to go to heaven but I would not be scared to go to heaven." Wow that just made me cry more. I just could not believe the conversation him and I were having. Well we are fine, thank God. Serious, it had to be God looking out for us because in all honesty we should have collided with that car. It just really opened up my eyes, and again made me realize how I need to not sweat the small stuff and just love and embrace my life and the people in it.

OMG Shiela, I'm so glad that you and Mikey are alright! Some people can be so irresponcible, I would have taken down her license plate number, but at that time you were probably really shaken up, I would have been too. Oh and your converation with Mikey, bless his little heart! It's amazing how they think and process things. Again i'm glad you two are safe, and your right it makes you treasure your family/friends and not worry about the small stuff.
