Being a Victim

I have to really stop coming home so late. Tonight, I had errands to do and didn't get home until seven. Pulling up in the F-150, I had to park in the driveway instead of the garage. Then, I had to get the crew out leave, leave the truck on, and get everyone into the house safely because the front porch light was off. Talking about trying to get everything organized. What I did was really kind of dangerous. It just so happened that I read an article in Parenting Magazine about being a victim of crime. What have you done to prevent being a victim? What are some things you can do to lessen the change of you being a victim?

This is an aware I became really nervous about after my boys were born. It is so difficult to protect not only yourself but your children also... add groceries and packages and YIKES!

I am constantly preaching our "parking lot rules" and "open eyes" strategies when we are out. Then I do a LOT of praying for God's surrounding of protection.

Cassandra, you're a good mother. It's impossible to protect against everything, but you're doing a great job. :)
