I'll get to all of that later - first...my precious new little nephew! Owen Harold! Born May 12, moments after Christa got into the delivery room! No really, like 20 minutes after she got in her hospital room.
Last week I took Piper out to the beach for a fun Mommy-Daughter beach day. I had plans for us to blow bubbles, play in the sand, look for seashells. But lo, the universe had other plans for us. About 2.4 seconds after I pulled off the highway onto A1A (the road next to the beach), I heard a LOUD thud, crack sound. Piper and I both looked at each other with huge eyes and I turned towards the back of the car to see this:
Construction workers on the side of A1A were mowing the grass and a rock from one of the mowers flew out of the mower and shattered our window.
THANKFULLY it was the back window, THANKFULLY it wasn't Piper's window, THANKFULLY it wasn't a few inches closer and our window was down, etc, etc with the thankfull's.
So, our beach day was not what I had planned since we ended up sitting on the side of the road for over an hour calling insurance, the company who was in charge of mowing the road, my Dad for suggestions on what to do, then we had to head over to the police station and place a police report. Piper was so sweet through the whole thing and sat in her carseat and chatted with me, and sang songs.
When I left the police station we were teetering on naptime and still had a 30 minute drive back home, but I thought, screw it, I am going to the beach. So Pip and I went and had a very quick but beautiful 20 minutes on the beach blowing bubbles and chatting.
