Daddy's Back...Thank GOD!!!

Saturday morning, Jason got on the plane in D.C. and flew safely to DFW where he was to board a plane to Shreveport for us to pick him up there. Well...after delays, he finally boarded a "prop" plane that was full to capacity and was placed in the back of the plane. They boarded through the back of the plane, which is unusual, but that is how the plane was in the terminal. So, no big deal. Well, when during takeoff Jason noticed a loud "wooshing" sound, he got a little worried. He said he got extremely worried when he saw the stewards start to shake and get on the phone to the front. Well, long story short...THEY DID NOT SEAL THE HATCH RIGHT AND MY HUSBAND WAS IN THE BACK AND COULD HAVE BEEN SUCKED OUT AT ANY TIME!! He was sitting next to a very nice southern woman who used him to cry on and he said she was basically in his lap, and Jason, being the jokester he is, kept trying to crack her up. He said he did several "hail Mary's" and told the lady it would all be okay. They were trying to decide whether to turn the plane around or not, but since they were half way to Shreveport (its only a 45 minute flight) they decided to keep going. The landing was rather abrupt and straight down, and their ears went nuts, but they did land safely, unharmed. Thank you GOD!!! Jason was waiting with this story to tell us when we walked in to get him. Can you believe they did not even offer to give them free miles or anything. I am just thankful God looked after his sheep and got ours home safely to us. Thank you God, you are wonderful!!! And on an upside, Crawford was excited to see his daddy and is so happy he is home...(well, for a week anyway!!)
