William Didn't Die.

This morning about 7:40 I was up and about making breakfast. William, my older brother, had left to drive the school bus into town a few minutes before and we got a phone calling from William saying that the van was on its side in the ditch.

Apparently, the gas pedal had gone clear to the floor and wouldn't come back up. He had to literally jam it into park, the front wheels locked up, and he swung completely around and into the ditch full of snow. Even when it did go onto its side, William said the van didn't stop running. But it is now and we're getting it towed back here.

William isn't hurt at all, but he was a little bit shaken up. Please praise the Lord with us!

Praise the Lord He gave William the smarts to know what to do... and that all is well with him... not the van, but with him.

The van is expendable, William is not! Give him a hug for us.
