Last year. I was in a Jeep on the beach, and a car was headed toward us. My dad had to turn right. Even though my seat belt was on, it was very bumpy. I flew up and banged my head on the light above me.

I cried a little bit because it hurt. But then I decided God wouldn't do this to me, because God is good. And I realized my dad and my brother were praying for me. So I knew I was going to be all right.

Then we went home and told my mom what had happened. I rested on the bed for a little bit. And five minutes laten I was fine.
