smackdown in the Villages....almost!

Wow. Today was so weird.
Started it off normal....got the kids to school, got Ella to kindergarten....etc. Sadie and I did some shopping, and came home ready to make a delicious dinner.
Luke and his friend came into the kitchen as I was making the salad, saying there was a lady...the mother of another boy...who had been yelling at them..and had gotten into Luke's face and told him he didn't know who the F#$% he was dealing with. He said the real word. Then the friend says...And she got into her car and followed us calling us little SH#$S...and she is calling the F ING police.
??????
I was stunned. First... that an adult would say those things...and that my kid just said F#@$. twice. So....being the momma bear that I am...I got in my car and drove over there.
"If she hits me , call 911"
Really, Mom?
Yes. really.

Before I am even around my car, she is coming at me. yelling, accusing, swearing, telling me my kid is a bully, she is calling the cops, etc.
I was so calm. ( yes...ME!!!!)
I told her I was over there to find out what happened. She didn't need to talk to me like that.
She didn't like that....she is an f ing adult, and I better get off her property....etc. ( by now, she is in my face...like 2 inches from my face)
I looked down at the sidewalk that my feet were on and said. "I am not on your property , and you are welcome to call the police." When there is a incident with my kid...I get involved...I am trying to figure out what happened...which is what you should have done before chasing down kids in your car, swearing at that them. Seriously!????
It went in circles for awhile...I remained calm. ( I know...crazy!!!!)
She and her husband apologized for the language and the craziness.. just before the mother of the other boy shows up and it started all over again.
We got back around to apologies, and I asked if she could get her boy to come out for an apology. ( I really wanted to see the scuff marks all over him that the Mom said he had, that Luke swore could not have happened)
He had none.
I had Luke apologize for upsetting the boy in a football game. and told the boys I thought they were all good boys, none of them were bullys...and that they play at our house anytime. ( 5 mins after she told me that if she saw Luke anywhere near their house, she would call the police.) ( told you I was calm!!!!!)

Over all, it was so weird. Weird is not the right word. It was sad...it was kinda funny.....it was scary....and it was peaceful. That is how I know for sure Heavenly Father had a hand in how it all went down. I felt a calmness and an empathy for the family that I know was not from me alone.
I honestly think that my prayer this morning for good health and safety was answered. She was certainly capable of grabbing me by the hair and smashing my head against the curb..... just sayin.

The evidence of a Loving God is sometimes found in the strangest of places.
