Our 3 year old had his first car crash!!!!!!!!!

Yep, this morning getting ready for rugby and soccer he was waiting in the ute while BP rushes in to brush his teeth

BP’s in the bathroom, when I hear a lady at our front door frantically expressing (English her second language) “Your Baby, Your Baby”

What?

Looking beyond her to the road to see our 3 year olds little face in BP’s ute, which- happens-to- be- IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD. My first dumbfounded reaction being (Derrr) “Why has BP parked the car on the road with our son in it?” …

“BRENDAN!!!!Our babies in your ute in the middle of the road”, me clicking and BP racing to the scene…

You guessed it… while waiting for BP, he pushed it out of gear, down went the hand break, and off rolled the ute down our drive, across the road, and SMACK into a car parked on the other side!

The trailer of BP’s ute unscathed, the other car hammered, but most importantly our 3 year old driver FINE!!!!!!!!!!!

So lucky, remembered later this morning how last night at Connect Group we really prayed a blessing and protection over our kids. We live on a fairly busy road with cars coming up and down all the time; it could have been potentially fatal. But fortunately because it didn’t, now kind of funny, BP worried that our boy might get charged for driving without a licence!
