An Angel Looking Over Us

You ever have the feeling that you have an angel looking out for you?  Or that there's some higher power who is watching you?  I felt that way the other day.

My son and I walk around the neighborhood on a daily basis.  He always stops by this huge tree that has these hanging branches; he loves to walk around it and play with the twigs near the trunk.  And like normal, the other day, we spent a good 10 minutes by this one particular tree and then headed back to our house.  We walked about 15-20 feet when we heard the crash.  I turned around and saw this huge tree branch lying where we had been standing just moments before.  This branch wasn't a small arm-length branch; it was larger than my son. 

I definitely felt like something was watching over us that day, keeping us safe.  It was an incredible feeling.
