OMG, thank goodness everyone is ok!! I am terrified of the day my children start driving.... And I agree, whoever sent you that pic without a phone starting with "We are all fine Mom!" .... LOL
As scary as accidents are I'd like to share what my serious accident did for us - I was hit by a kid who ran a stop sign while joy-riding (thankfully my kids were with my husband altho they were following me home so unfortunately drove up on the accident immediately....). I had a serious head injury that I still struggle with and I don't remember the month after the accident except as a haze.
HOWEVER, that accident changed our lives for the better - we cherish every day we have, we cherish our friends, family and time. We stopped wishing we could had the time to do special things and started DOING them (which is why I have the minis I have now). My husband tells me everyday how much he loves me, we tell our kids how much they mean to us. We changed our work schedules to spend more time with the kids.
Our life is so much better and more rewarding now and I hope that your son and his girlfriend reap the same benefits from this scary incident.
I can't imagine opening my phone to that picture and not knowing what had happened. Once I found out everyone was basically OK, I'd kill whoever sent me the pic without first telling me everything was ok.
