The unthinkable happened, yet not with the result that could have been.
A few days ago, lil C was on her way out of the school yard, on her bike and (this time of all times) without a helmet :-( She says she looked both ways before crossing. A car came out of nowhere and hit her. Thank God, the car was driving slowly and the driver was a nurse! Both were in shock but the nurse instinct took over and lil C was checked and found to be all in one piece, almost.. Two scrapes, one on her elbow and one on her ankle. No broken bones, no massive bruising, no head injuries.
Poor C was in tears, logical! It got worse when she got some liniment on her scrapes, it STUNG (and I insisted on cleaning the wounds, while trying to be as gentle as possible). It helped however to get a plaster. And a glass of chocolate milk. And a nice warm blanket. And a hot water bottle. In mummy's bed. Suddenly she was all sunshine because she could snooze in peace. In her own words, she felt 'perfectly fine'.
I don't believe in coincindences, no coincidence that the car that hit her was driving slowly, and that the driver was a nurse. I believe that my lil angel was protected by a Higher Power whose name is Jesus. And I am boundlessly grateful that lil C's guardian angel was there!
