Not a Good Way to Start the New Year!

Tonight I am counting my blessings! We almost had a catastrophe at our house today. We are all nursing colds and stuffy noses still. I almost think it may be allergies--since we feel okay--just can't smell real great and still have that cough *sigh*

Anyways...at some point tonight while cooking supper, the knob on the gas stove got turned, not enough to light it, but enough to let gas out. We didn't notice it, and went on with our night. Quite a bit later tonight, I had a raging headache and wasn't feeling very good. Kimmy and I were downstairs talking and I just asked finally out of the blue if she noticed anything...after a bit, we thought to check the stove. ALWAYS listen for that still small voice! We got all the windows and doors opened and cleared out the house...but it has unnerved me of what COULD have happened. I am very grateful for Heavenly Father watching out for us! It gave me quite the story to tell handsome when he called tonight anyways.
