Yup, God did it again. Tonight after Steve and I had our baby CRP class after we were hungry. So why not head over to Towers and go for some Chipolte. We were in separate cars and after I pulled in and got out of the car I started walking and all I could hear was glass falling all around me. It sounded as if some one busted out a car window and then I felt glass cutting me and Steve grabbed me and tried to cover over me till the glass was done falling. Two of those 3 story high lamp posts that are in the parking lot BROKE and fell all down around and on me.
There was a couple who had two small children and they were only a few steps ahead of Steve, they had a 1st aid box in their car. The mom gave Steve band-aids and alcohol rubs to put on my feet, legs, arms. I just stood there crying ((b/c I was shocked)) while Steve cleaned me up and the lady went to go find Towers security to let them know what happened. There was a car that got all crazy dinged up due to the falling glass, dents here and there.
Once security arrived he URGED us to go to the ER just for liability reasons and b/c I was shook up and pregnant. Didn't want to go into labor b/c my blood pressure was crazy. He said they would take care of my doctor bills and that I needed to be checked out. Period.
While in triage I got to hear the baby's heart beat, she was moving around a lot. My blood pressure was 110/70. I was having contractions while I was there but they weren't close enough together. **heheheh, yippie** Steve and I got to have a 'trial run through' on what it will be like when we actually have to go and give birth.
Thanks God for keeping Steve out of harms way with the jeep this past weekend and not hurting another car in the meantime.
Thanks God for keeping the glass from cutting me up really bad and hurting me or the baby =)
Shew........maybe we need to stay inside for a while....HA!
Okay -- now that you've written it down, I have a better understanding of what happened. When I talked to you on the phone last night, I just couldn't get a mental picture of the incident. I thought that a light bulb had burst, and little pieces of glass had sort of fluttered down on you. I really thought it had just scared you a whole lot and injured you a very little.
ReplyDeleteAfter reading this, I'm thankful that you weren't hurt worse, and I'm sorry I wasn't more concerned and sympathetic last night. I love you. Dad
Aw, it's ok Dad....I probably was NOT making any sense last night b/c I was scared and shook up. Im not mad of course. Love you too
ReplyDeleteWow! So glad you, Steve and Miss Ellie are okay! Be careful out there little mama!! :)
ReplyDeleteThanks Katlyn! We are ok, I am I extra cautious now. It's funny how they always tell you to park near the lights so you are visible but now I believe I will park away from the tall lights now.
ReplyDeleteP.s- I have worn my 'Ellie' necklace every day since you gave it to me =)
ReplyDeleteYes, be cautious! Our God is good, but he has a lot of folks to watch out for! ;)
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you're loving your Ellie necklace. I'd hoped you would. <3
So excited for you and Steve. You're going to be awesome parents.
P.S. - HAPPY BIRTHDAY, Steve!!! :)
