Jessie's Accident ~ July 16, 2011

So thankful Jessie and Amanda are ok.....This is why I lay awake at night and worry myself sick! A care rearended the white SUV who was stopped in the turn lane, the SUV did a 360 thought the middle of the intersection, Jessie was stopped waiting to make a right hand turn and the SUV slammed into her backwards. The car that caused the accicent kept going, sideswiped another care then hit a car headon in the oncoming trafic who was pushed into a truck behind her. Six cars in total,five of which most likley totaled and thankfuly only one person was taken to the hospital. Tell your kids every day how much you love them because you just never know when crazy stuff like this happens! I LOVE YOU JESSIE, NIKIE, KYLE and HAROLD!
