FLAT TIRES AND POLICE CARS

Ok... so let me just say... WHAT A DAY! So, as many of you know I'm a nanny to the most precious boy in the world! Well, on Wednesdays, I always take him to go and visit his grandparents. On the ride home down 400 mind you my tire blew out as I was going almost 70mph!!! So, needless to say that was CRAZY!

As I'm sitting on the side of the road with no way to hardly even get out of my car there are other cars flying past me at least going almost 80! At this time in a panic... I call my wonderful husband at work to figure out what to do! Then, to my surprise a black car pulls up behind my car... out steps an ATLANTA POLICE OFFICER!! GOD IS GOOD!! So, she actually hit the same thing that I did and her tire was flat too. She calls for back up and then a tow truck! So, we wait for what seems like eternity especially with a 2 1/2 year old saying over & over, "did you get a flat tire?" 

About that time.... here comes the tow truck guy and yet again I'm thankful that God has sent me two police officers because no offense but this guy was SCARY! He looked like he came right out of Adventures in Babysitting with Elizabeth Shue, for those of you who have never seen that movie I know you have no clue what I'm talking about. For those of you who do know... IT TOTALLY HAPPENED TO ME TODAY!!! 

So for towing me like 3 miles down the road I got to pay $105 dollars... Oh yeah!! So I was towed somewhere off of Piedmont Road.... Andrew and I got to take a ride with the other police officer that had showed up to the scene! Haha! I never thought I would see the day with me sitting in the back of a police car looking through a cage to my precious Andrew! Just so that everyone is aware... If you go to North Point or Buckhead Church or whatever... I am a good woman! I just had a flat tire!! They weren't taking my kid, and I didn't get arrested!! He's not even my kid!! So, Andrew had a big time! He loved the siren and was great comic relief to me and the police officer! 

So, for all who are reading... if you are going to get a flat on 400, I just recommend that you do it trying to time it ever so slightly to make sure the same thing is about to happen to an officer!! Thanks to them and thanks to this big God who always is in control of every situation! It's because of Him I was able to take the time to laugh at this!! Thanks for keeping me and that precious boy safe!

God Bless-
