Late summer of 1995 as my sons played outside at our house trailer and my friend Cheryl and I were sitting on my deck drinking tea, a man was trying to get into my bedroom window on the other side from where all of us were at.
Finally Cheryl said she had to get her grand kids home and into bed as it was getting late. I told her I had to do the same with mine and we departed our own ways.
My son Jimmy told me that Cathy, the lady across from us, seen a man trying to get into our house trailer the window that was in my bedroom while we sat out side talking and them playing. I said what? He told me again. So I called Cathy up told her what Jimmy told me and asked what she seen.
She said she watched for a few minutes at this man that climbed the tree that lean over my bedroom window and then tried to lower himself into my bedroom window. She said, when she was about to phone the police he finally fell down and took off.
So Cathy asked if I wanted her husband Chuck to come over and look around for me. I said sure that would be a good idea. He looked around the trailer and by the window did see some marks on the window seal to where the man was trying to break into my trailer. Other then that nothing else was visible.
My son Jesse slept on a sofa pull out bed in the living room about 50' from where I was at the other end of the trailer. I tried to get my son to sleep in the room with me on the floor like he use to when he was smaller. He said he wanted his own bed. So I let him go to sleep on the sofa bed.
I locked the front door less then 10' from my son and then pulled the bolt across the door as well so it was doubled locked. I only hoped that who ever the man was trying to get into my bedroom window, would not try to get into the door while I was asleep and harm my son.
Before I went to bed I said my prayers as usual and then I added "Lord please have my sons Guardian Angel watch over him tonight, if anyone tries to break into the house while I am asleep". After that I went to sleep.
Nothing seemed to be out of place the next morning. No marks on the door that would indicate that anyone tried to get into the house, or any of the other windows around the trailer from the outside. So I felt confidant that all was well last night. So I said "Thank you Lord for keeping my son safe".
Several weeks went by my son and I were talking and he said to me "Mom remember the night that man tried to break into your bedroom window?" I said "yes that's been a few weeks ago why you asking if I remember that?"
He said "I woke up in the middle of the night I had to go to the bathroom. I woke up on my back and at the foot of my bed was my glowing Guardian Angel. My Guardian Angel was watching over me". I said "how do you know it was your Guardian Angel?" He said "I don't know how I know mom I just know". "Could you see a face? Did the Angel have a body like we do?", "No" he said. "My Guardian Angel was just floating and glowing. I could tell my Guardian Angel was happy just watching over me." I said "so did you get up and go to the bathroom after that?", "No" he said, "I rolled over and went back to sleep". I said "did this frighten you to see this?" He said, "NO MOM it was my Guardian Angel I was not frighten".
I hugged my son looked up towards the window in my trailer to the sky and just said "Thanks once again Lord for protecting my son that night."
