I know this is not the place for this but I have to tell someone/everyone. We got invited to our music directors from church home Friday night to play games and eat snacks. First time for us to be there. About 10 PM got a call from my 25 year old daughter. She said dad where are you. Well I was joking with her and said were having a sleep over at Marks and Lisa's house, She said dad I need you. My first thought was a car problem. She said Kenly's hurt......she’s been burned. I almost fell to the floor. This is our sweat little 5 year old granddaughter that lives with us. She was over at her dads and they have a small burn pit for campfires and such. Kenely was wearing a little Disney princess dress and was chasing her little dog and fell head first into the coals. Her father grabbed her in a split second and got all the embers off her clothes and hair. We jumped up and started grabbing our stuff and Mark said hold on, stop. We need to pray. Him and his wife’s daughter suffered a bad burn as a child so he knew the panic we were feeling. And he said the most beautiful yet simple prayer. It just calmed us so much. Long story short the ER said she had 2nd degree burns on her left hand and wrist. After treatment she was allowed to come home. I have attached two pics. Just after the burn and about 14 hours later. She is up playing like nothing ever happened. Don’t tell me we don’t serve a great God that loves and cares about us. If I don’t give him praise for this the rocks are going to cry out. I know this is far from tractor related but it is family related. And I am betting everyone on here has someone they love and care about. Thanks for letting me ramble.
