Policemen

If I was 17 again I probably wouldn't be posting about being grateful for policemen. I wasn't very good at going the speed limit and my friends and I liked to go 4-wheeling where, apparently, you aren't supposed to 4-wheel. There was one situation where I got pulled over by 5 cop cars because of where we had decided to go 4-wheeling. I guess they thought we were going to meet someone for a drug deal. Really crazy!
Anyway, this is all beside the point. Today I am truly grateful for policemen who will risk their lives to protect, serve, and save others. And for their amazing families who support them in doing that.
Today, on my way home from the Children's Museum with my kids, I was listening to the radio and heard them say that IUPUI (the place where my husband attends dental school) was on lock-down because policeman were searching for a reported gunman. You can see the full story here.
I was scared! I hadn't heard from Brad, so I texted him and luckily he responded quickly! He was fine, but was locked up in his lab. The police (and there were probably around 60 or 70 cop cars that were there) searched the whole campus before finally saying it was safe for everyone.
I was so happy when Brad finally made it home!
The kids and I did have fun at the museum, though. Although it was extremely crowded today. Here are some fun pictures!

We keep wiping her out. Soon she won't want to fall asleep anywhere but the car!
