The girls and

I were in a minor accident yesterday, everyone is okay. On impact baby started screaming, though she has been examined and is okay, Claire slept thru the entire event and my body is sore. Someone else hit us, and luckily myself and my door took the brunt of the hit.

It wasn't my fault and the guy who hit me was SO STRESSED OUT he made me stressed out. He was young, and had a new sports car.

I am going to rest with my family for a few days.

This is an important opportunity to remind everyone what the NHTSA says about child car seat safety after it has been involved in a car accident...REPLACE IT! Your insurance company will pay for it, and even if they don't your children's safety should come first. There could be hair line fractures that you can not see.

If the car seat was installed properly then it has done it's job which means it more than likely has damage. If the car seat was installed improperly then it could have even more damage.
