So I am putting Mia to sleep and I hear Jerry tell Pam that he smells something burning. She offers immediately to call the fire department or 911. I have just about got this baby to sleep and I am not worried so much about a fire as I am Mia going down for the night. After slowly and carefully transferring Mia from the rocker to her crib, I dash out to see what was going on. Sure enough, there was a fire in my bathroom! The smell was horrible. First thing Pam said when I saw her was, "Jerry took care of it." My heat lamp had a short inside the box and some how caused a large flame. Jerry threw water on it and put it out. No real harm done. Just scary because you never really think about a fire in your own home. Kelsey was out with his flight instructor and from Mia's room you could not smell the fire so I am so thankful Pam and Jerry happened to be with me. We had to sleep with the windows open that night to get the awful smell out and we will be buying a new heat light unit to replace the one that went up in flames.

How frightening! So glad you all are okay and yes, it was so good that Jerry and Pam were with you! I can´t even imagine what would have happened if they hadn´t been there!!!!
That calls for immediate prayer of thanks!
