THE GRACE OF GOD!!!

Me and Maya were in a horrible car accident last Saturday. It was by the Grace of God that we were both able to walk away with only minor injuries. Maya only had a small scratch on the right side of her neck. She has been having some nightmares but those are getting better. For the first couple of days after the accident she screamed when I put her in the car. That is better also. Thank God!!!! We were turning left when a small car top the hill going way too fast to stop. They hit us on the passengers side going about 80 mph. It split the entire side of my SUV and flipped us. We landed upside down. Not sure how but I managed to get myself out then I was getting Maya out when someone got there to help. At first Maya wasn't talking at all. Poor little thing was in shock. I am just so thankful that she was not hurt. I have been trying to scan the pictures but the scanner is not cooperating right now. I will try again later. You have to see the pictures to know that we are 2 walking miracles.

I did get a new car Friday. We got a black Dodge Charger. Maya got a new pink car seat. We were both very excited about our new purchases.

SAD NEWS!!!
