Angels Everywhere

Today was an emotional day. First of all I got up early thought about doing laundry, cleaning my son's bedroom, and cleaning out the refrigerator. No big deal. Took my dog out to potty and came back in made me 2 hotdogs and fried some french fries. It was very tasty. No big deal. I talked on the phone with my friend for over an hour about everything. I began cleaning out the refrigerator and started my "Desperate Housewives" dvd season 2. I was happy having a good time. No big deal. I made myself a wonderful lunch of soup and grill cheese. No big deal. Well that's kind how my morning went. Before I knew it, it was time for my son to get home from school. He was 5 mins late. No big deal. He was 15 mins late. No big deal. He was 30 mins late. Now it's a BIG deal. I called the school, the buses left on time. I walked down the street and checked with another kid who rides the same bus, who said he wasn't on it. Then panic sets in. The police was next on the list to call. I then saw a tiny figure in a distance walking towards me. IT WAS MY SON! You talk about frightened to death. Come to find out, my 8yr old walked home from school because he missed his bus. He walked 2miles down a busy hwy 70. Just thinking about the "what ifs" makes me want to cry. He was tired, skin flushed, and very sweaty. Not to mention he was carrying a backpack full of books(19lbs). You ain't gonna tell me that boy didn't have angels around him.
