My husband and children remained in Pennsylvania staying at his parents house until we could afford to rent a home for them to come and join me. January passed and Febuary was ending and I was heading back to Pennsylvania to meet my husband and children to join me in Maryland. I was so excited to see them. I had never been away from my family for such a long period of time and I could not wait to see them. As I drove the weather was great until I was within an hour of my destination. The roads become very bad...and the snow was coming down really hard. I kept praying for the Lord to get me to my husbands parents home. I made it finally to there road. I was now a little over a mile away from the embrace of my husband and children. As I turned left to head down their road I realized that their road had not been plowed and the snow was deeper than I had ever driven in. I told myself that I was so close and I couldn't just stop now.....and I thought it was too cold to safely sleep in the car.....so I kept driving and praying....I went up a hill down a hill...up a hill down a hill....the third hill I did not make it up. The snow was too deep and my car drifted backwards and slid into a ditch. At this point I was within seeing distance to the house. I thought I could just get out of the car and walk through the snow to their house. I walked about 50 feet in snow that was past my knees....wind blowing and I was freezing. My heart starting pounding and I was physically not able to move. My legs were now frozen because I wear dresses and the snow was very deep....My hands were frozen and I could not move. As I made my way to the nearest house to my left I thought I was going to die...just feet away from seeing my husband and children. I made it too the neighbors door, but I had no strength to knock on the door and I now could not breath and my heart was pounding so hard I thought I was going to have a heart attack. I then begged God to give me the strength to knock just hard enough for the neighbor to hear me. Eventually he came to the door and shortly there after I was in the arms of my husband. Praise the Lord for answered prayers and his protection!!! In January 2007, I came to Maryland to start a teaching position.
