“But the good news -Rodney Atkins,<\/p>\n If You’re Going Through Hell Lyrics<\/p>\n This weekend my family and 6 other families went camping.\u00a0 We had a great time together.\u00a0 We were able to swim, rent boats, go tubing and have lots of fun together around the campfire.\u00a0\u00a0Saturday evening most of the moms and children went to the marina to order some dinner.\u00a0 The marina is a floating dock and right before you enter the store there is a small area where you can look at very large fish swimming.\u00a0 It was my turn to order the food and my friend said “Go ahead and I will watch your kids.”\u00a0 No sooner did I go into the store than I heard screaming and splashing.\u00a0 We ran back out the door and I saw my brother in law Mike and my friend Nicki coming out of the water, fully clothed and soaked and someone handed me my youngest son, Jake he is 4 years old.\u00a0 Apparently he was looking to closely at the fish and fell into the water, he went straight down and when he came up his head bumped up under a portion of the floating dock so my brother in law and friend Nicki both jumped in to the water neither one of them ever touched the bottom it was too deep.\u00a0 They got under neath him and pushed him straight up out of the water and my other children helped to pull him out of the water.\u00a0 He was unharmed but soaked and screaming that the fish were biting him.\u00a0 Actually my brother in law said they scattered as soon as he hit the water.\u00a0 My other friend said “Good thing there are angels watching over our kids”.\u00a0 It was very traumatic for all the children that saw it happen.\u00a0 A few said they never wanted to go back again.\u00a0 One had difficulty sleeping that night because of it.\u00a0 All of them were giving Jake hugs.\u00a0 It took all of us back and gave us pause at what could have happened.\u00a0 Had he gone all the way under the dock I don’t know how they would have saved him.\u00a0 Every time I think about it I start to cry to think what if.\u00a0 But I don’t want to think like that.<\/p>\n So we are all thanking God that there are angels among us named Mike\u00a0 and Nicki.\u00a0 I think that there are angels but the angels in our midst don’t usually have wings they are just good people who act on pure instinct to do what is right no matter what the cost to themselves.\u00a0 I am forever indebted to Mike and Nicki for acting so quickly to save my little boy.<\/p>\n Who are the angels in your life?\u00a0 They don’t have to save your child’s life to be an angel.\u00a0 Who are the people who are just good people who act on pure instinct to do what is right no matter what the cost to themselves?\u00a0 They are everywhere.\u00a0 Are you an angel to others?\u00a0 You probably would never think that but I bet you are to someone definitely your children.\u00a0 What mom or dad would not lay down his\/her own life for his\/her own child. What is amazing to me is that another mom and dad did it for my child.\u00a0 I just want to say thank you, and that is so little for something so great.\u00a0 So today think of the angels in your life say a little prayer for them today and be an angel to someone else today.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" \u00a0 “But the good news Is there’s angels everywhere out on the street Holding out a hand to pull you back up on your feet” -Rodney Atkins, If You’re Going Through Hell Lyrics This weekend my family and 6 other families went camping.\u00a0 We had a great time together.\u00a0 We were able to swim, rent boats, go tubing and have lots of fun together around the campfire.\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":5,"featured_media":204,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[1],"tags":[58,59,38],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/faithfilledmom.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/200"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/faithfilledmom.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/faithfilledmom.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/faithfilledmom.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/5"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/faithfilledmom.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=200"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/faithfilledmom.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/200\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/faithfilledmom.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/204"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/faithfilledmom.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=200"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/faithfilledmom.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=200"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/faithfilledmom.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=200"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
