Garren, that is why mommy ALWAYS tells you and Maya, ” WE DON’T take off our seat belt.” We never know when we may wreck, and we always want to be ready. Because mommy just wouldn’t know what to do without you guys! I love you, son. We can’t wait for you to get home on Thursday! <3

Thank you God for the seats that saved my brother and my other brother. It gave me a shock very bad and all the seat belts can help people. I love you Mom and brothers and sister. Bless you Mom. (dictated by Garren – 6 yrs old)

@ Amber, there is no thanks needed for doing what was right…your children are so sweet..I wanted you to know what your 3 yr old said…He said “I didn’t like that ride”..He was so cute when he said that…again I am so glad it turned out alright…

I’m glad you n babies are OK.
I know Amber always put her kids in carseats
And made sure they were properly restrained!!
I am sorry for accident, yet seeing firsthand and
Experiencing firsthand that carseats and seatbelts
Make a HUGE difference!!I know of a woman who died
From no seatbelt, recently.I lived from the seatbelt
And my children as well.
I agree it’s the law for a reason.I applaud you Amber GOD BLESS!!

God deserves all the glory in this story. Tomorrow is the two year anniversary since my son, Maddox died. So, this is already a hard time for our family. I am extremely grateful to those who stopped at the scene of the accident. To the folks who took my children out of the car, and then comforted them while I was unable to. You are truly unsung heros, and I wish I could thank you all personally.

While I am flattered on all the compliments on how my having the boys properly secured in their car seats kept them safe, I kind of think it is sad. In the fact that it is so note worthy when a parent does what they should do, every time. If that is the only message from the accident, I pray it is received by somebody! You never put your children in the car and expect to wreck, but you should ALWAYS plan as though that is the case. Greysen (3 yrs) and Grant (3 months) are no worse for the wear because of God’s mercy and their safety seats.

Thank you again to all of those who stopped. The whole thing is still foggy to me, probably from hitting my head so hard. So I am not even sure I thanked any of you.

Just came home from the hospital with minor injuries. Few staples in my head, glass, and some cuts. Not a hair on my babies were harmed! Thank God. I have always been very much in to car seat safety and making sure they are properly being used.

I would like to thank those of you who stopped to help us!
