This afternoon, David went for a bike ride on the trail behind our house. As he was nearing home he came upon a quickly spreading brush fire. There was a lady walking with a cell phone who called 911 and then David had her call us to come out and help.
The kids, along with our neighbors lugged buckets of all sizes filled with water and doused it onto the flames.
Thankfully, it didn't take long for the Fire Department to arrive on the scene. They were able to put it out quickly, much to our relief.
Of course, Josiah was most concerned about the animal and their damaged habitats. He let me know that he was praying for them the whole time.
Then we got to stand back and watch our tax dollars hard at work. We are just thankful it didn't hit any closer to home.
