I was the driver of the white SUV involved in Monday’s accident.

The children are actually 2½ years and six months old, not four and five as reported in the story. (Editor’s note: The ages were contained in the police report.)

We’re certainly shaken up, but very grateful that our vehicle and properly-secured car seats did their jobs and kept our children safe in this accident.

I’m also grateful to the caring bystanders who held my kids after I passed them out of the vehicle, the kind nurse who stopped to attend to my daughter and the first responders for doing such an incredible job – yesterday and every day.
