Kevin



Last week I wrote about my new car. Today I'm writing about my son. Friday night Kevin was driving Josh to his friends and on the way home he flipped my new car into a bunch of palmetto bushes. You might think I would be writing about my poor car that I only had for 2 weeks but that's not what I'm going to write about. I'm going to write about the many blessings I have in my life and one of those is Kevin.
When Kevin was little he was the middle child and I tried so hard to make sure he didn't grow up with the middle child syndrome. I told him that the other day and he said I failed.
Kevin is one of those children that some mothers can only dream of having. He knows what is right and tries so hard to follow his Heavenly Father. He wants to help those that can't help themselves but believes those that can help themselves need to. Lately he has been struggling to find the profession he will love to do for the rest of his life but that will also support his family. A profession that will help others and that he can feel good about what he's doing.
I only get to spend about three months a year with him but I cherish all of that time with him. I know at times he can be a little too concerned with life and what's happening with the world around him and I still worry about him but in the long run I know he will be fine.
This is the second time Kevin has been in a car accident that could have taken his life but I know there is a reason the Lord has spared him again. He is a choice spirit and the Lord has more in store for him, he isn't finished with what he needs to do here on earth.
I no longer have a car and I will need to get another one but no car, house or material thing would ever mean more to me than any of my sons.

I did forget to add pictures of my new car but I do have pictures now...

That looks like a mug shot. So for the recorded, I DID NOT get arrested.
