Only 2 hours of sleep!

Tonight was so hectic but yet such a blessing. I hadn't gone to bed until 12:30 because I couldn't sleep. But at 2:30am I was woken up by my Mama and I knew that was a little strange. She then told me that my older brother, Gabriel was in a car accident and that he was at the hospital. I looked at my phone and his Fiance had texted me saying that she was worried and was wondering if he was home yet because she couldn't get ahold of him and she had been talking to him. My parents left after finding directions and I was on the phone with Katie who was freaking out because they told her "he isn't ready". I then had to stay awake to take care of the puppy who was born the evening before but not only that I was worrying about my brother. He is currently still in the hospital but should be leaving at any given time. I'm so happy and thankful that he is okay. The doctor said that from the looks of his car and the drivers side hitting a tree dead on...that he was one lucky man to make it out of that alive. I know that our heavenly father was looking out for him and all of his loved ones. He has scratches and bruises, his hands and feet are swollen, bruised lungs, and possibly a broken ribs but they are definately sore. Then I had to wake up my little brother tell him what had happened and make sure I bring him to school. No wonder why little nathan is so afraid of cars and never wanting to cry. Everyone in my family has been involved in an near death car accident. Except him and me, but if i hadn't listened to the spirit it would of been me, instead of my parents who had a much BIGGEr car then me. I'm so thankful for prayer and the protection our Heavenly Father gives us. I love my brother with all of my heart and so so so so thankful, he is okay!

Wow, I am glad that he is ok! How scarey. What happened?? How did he wreck? That's crazy, I am glad he is alright. Man, is your family trying to die? you almost chocked to death and this! I am glad he is ok and you're ok. Say hi to him for me.

i was looking at the engagement pics again and i think you could go to school for photography for sure if you wanted to. of course it may not even be necessary cause i am sure that if you really wanted to get into it you could learn a lot just from the internet and books. i just think you have a lot of talent and could do it professionally if you wanted.
