I’m proud of my wife

July 1st, 2009 Posted in Uncategorized

Last week my wife was stopped at a stop light and a young woman bumped her from behind.  The only damage was that the paint on the bumper was scratched up.  Through all the events so far, my wife has been flawless - from the handling of the initial situation through dealing with the other person and getting the bumper fixed. 

The part that I’m most proud of her about is that she’s doing the right thing even though it means more work for her.  She’s trying to resolve the situation in the way that’s best for both us, and the girl that bumper tapped her when she could have easily just called her insurance company and filed a claim.  Filing an insurance claim would have been best for us, but not best for the young woman.  Going through the insurance company would have been a much easier process and provided a rental car while our car was being fixed.  Instead, my wife did extra work on her part to avoid the insurance company so that the girl didn’t suffer increased rates and marks against her license for such a little thing.

I’m proud of the way my wife has handled everything related to this little accident.  I hope that the girl realizes how nice my wife is being.  I makes me feel good about the world to know that there are people like my wife in it.
