Traumatic

Last night we went out with my in-laws to celebrate their anniversary.  On the way home, we happened upon an accident - a young woman had hit a biker and we literally drove by right after it happened.  Of course we stopped and I jumped out the car and called 911.  James stayed back at the car with Kendall.  The poor guy was just a mess...very bloody, not really coherent, moaning, etc.  (Please pray for him - not sure of the outcome as we left after the police and paramedics arrived).  Kendall didn't see any of this, but was aware that something bad had happened.

Anyway - as we pulled off, of course Kendall wanted to know what happened.  So we told her (in 2 year old terms) and dropped it.  Well, this morning, she's still talking about the accident.  We've prayed together for the victim and talked about safety, etc. but I really think she may be semi-traumatized by the whole thing.  And I think that she thinks we're the ones that hit the biker.  She keeps saying "hit man daddy's car".  I keep telling her that we just stopped to help, but she's not getting that part. 

I love a good learning experience, but this is one we could have skipped.
