Well, I knew it had to happen, and today it did.....I got the phone call all parents dread. The call from my son that he has had an accident. It wasn't a bad accident, just a minor fender bender in the local convenience store parking lot. But an accident, nonetheless. And, yes, it was his fault. That means insurance premiums go up, and I worry more than ever when he is in the vehicle. But none of that matters as long as he is okay...and he is...Thank God....
I have to go now and talk to him about being more responsible, more careful. It is not a talk I am looking forward to. Joseph is my baby. When he hurts, I hurt. And he is hurting now, so badly. This scared him to death.....that is a good thing. It will only serve to make him more careful. But I want so badly to tell him that is was just an accident, no big deal. But it IS a big deal. What if someone had been walking there, rather than parked, waiting for people to move? Lord, please help me to find the words....
