I can't believe it

My sister was driving with her three month old son in my dad's old pickup, when she heard a loud pop and the engine started on fire. Thankfully she was able to get herself and her son out of the truck before it was engulfed in flames. The police are still investigating what caused it to happen.

My reaction, as you can imagine, was that of shock and worry. It's amazing that my sister and nephew came away unscathed. I'm so thankful to Heavenly Father for blessing them with safety. We knew the truck was in bad condition, but never thought it would explode on the highway. Scary incident.

You never think that will be someone you know on the side of the road, but it could be. Scary.
