Our Trial before the Fun

I wanted to wait to post this so that I didn't jinx myself. So, on Thursday, our battery died. I found out by packing the girls in the car and having to go pick up Jeremiah only to find out that my car wouldn't do anything when the key was turned! I frantically tried to reach Jeremiah (I finally got him on his cell) to let him know. Of course I was crying because I felt I might not get the chance to go on vacation. So, the boys came to save me! YAY!! Thankfully it was only the battery and it was promptly replaced. We seem to not have much luck around the time that vacation happens. Last year, the day Jeremiah returned to work - he was in a car accident. Oh, then I thought the car completely "reset" the odometer to 50- some thousand miles. Only to find that it was probably fine. I just prepare for the worst I guess!! Imagine the relief when I find out it isn't that bad. Sorry, I'm rambling. I need to fill you in on what's going on here!
