Sarah, Debbie, Ethan and I witnessed a horrible accident the other night. I’m not going to mention any specifics because I don’t want the thousands of people Googling the incident to come across this page… I think it would in some way sensationalize the incident and I don’t want that. This is really just a way for me to journal my thoughts. To be honest, what we had to deal with was MINISCULE compared to those more closely associated with the tragedy, and I hope that those reading this don’t mistake this as a “Woe is me” kind of entry.

We’d never experienced anything like this before, and were utterly shocked. Luckily Ethan was too young to really understand what happened. It was difficult to process, and we found ourselves looking for answers, but there were none.

We thank everyone who has sent us a quick note, Email or call to let us know they were thinking about us after having been through this. I guess when crises happen, people tend to gravitate towards the actions — no matter how small they may seem — that may make a difference to the people around them. A kind word. A smile. An offer of help. A simple prayer.  They are appreciated. Sarah and I hope that everyone involved finds comfort and is able to move forward. We pray that God’s will is done and that this serves His purpose whatever that might be.

If you want to send me a note, please Email rather than comment here.
