On Saturday we were at my sister Missie's house holding a Scentsy party. Katie left at noon to make it to her voice lesson by 12:15. Suddenly I received a phone call, that dreaded phone call with a crying child on the other end of the line. Katie was hesterically crying and telling me she ran into a fence. I asked her where she was. Luckily she was just around the corner. I ran out of the party and across the street to find the truck off of the main road and half way into someone's backyard. I asked Katie what happened. She said she stopped at the corner and let some kids go by on their bikes, when they had passed she turned the corner and she was caught off guard by the sprinklers turning on, she thaught it might be another child. She swerved, hit the curb and ran into the fence applying the brakes just before she fell into the pool. She did not feel the pain of her injuries until after we were waiting for the police for an hour. Bob arrived on the scene and handled things so well. He was so kind and calm with Katie, I think this made her feel even worse. The owners of the fence were very nice. They did not press charges so Katie did not get a ticket. Any way, Katie is just sore nothing broken, the truck is back in the shop, Katie is driving a rental, and my brother in- law Rick has a new fence repair job. I can't wait until Kimmy starts driving.
-BTW When we got home that night, Bob received a speeding ticket in the mail and he has to go to driving school.

You know it was all a little hazy. It all happen in slow motion, and I felt like I was in a movie.
