Making lemonade out of lemons




A few weeks ago we had a very unfortunate Thursday morning.
Neither Keri's truck nor my van would start. What are the chances? Through the help of some friends, the big kids made it to school on time. A tow truck came, and before loading our cars up, tried to jump them (we had tried earlier with no luck). My van started up but Keri's truck would not crank. So the truck got a nice, expensive ride on the back of a tow truck. Keri, Brock and I drove my car in and had a new battery put in the van in under 5 minutes. I then dropped Keri at work. I had already called my boss at the preschool who quickly found a sub to cover for me. So, now I had an unexpected day off. Brock and I decided to make the most of out it by taking a trip to our favorite park and crossing some big errands of our list a day early. Not a bad day after all! Oh and Keri's truck just needed a new battery too, thank you God for no huge repairs right now!
