"Be Humble..."

I've heard this twice today. Once from my Mommy Dearest and once from my hubby. Why you ask? Well, today was a very humbling day. We had COURT! EEEkkkk! It all began on Valentine's Day. Kyle took off for work and called me 10 minutes later to let me know the police had him pulled over and said he had a suspended drivers license. So I arrived and they took my info and said I had a suspended drivers license. WHAT!?! And the nice policeman handed us Warrants for 3rd Degree "CRIMINALS" was stamped across the front! So...we spent the day trying to unravel the mysterious case of the SUSPENDED DRIVER's LICENSE...DUH! Duh! DUH! (input creepy music) Well by the end of the day we kind of had it figured out but had had to shell out about $600 to get my license and Kyle's license "somewhat" figured out and unsuspended that we didn't even know were suspended in the first place!! Come to find out the whole thing was ONE BIG misunderstanding. ONE BIG computer error! ONE BIG headache!! So Kyle and I were stamped "CRIMINALS" for committing a "CRIME" that we didn't even committ...well except my ticket was marked "unpaid" and so was Kyle's. But they had record of Kyle's being paid somewhere they just couldnt figure out which departmet of the government didn't do their job and forgot to mark it "PAID"...and this is where health care is going people...UGH!! As for me we couldn't prove anything so I had to walk away with my tail between my legs. Now fast forward to today. Our court date where we were going to go down kicking and screaming no matter what! They were going to know we were innocent! So we get all spiffied up and looking "professional" with our papers and evidence to show good ole Mr. Judge that we were done wrong! The morning was spent sweating and hyperventalating and praying and more sweating and hyperventalating. I sent a very important text to my mommy to see is she was praying (cause you know how mom's have that direct line to Heaven) and she texted back "BE HUMBLE and don't be afraid to cry" so I walked into that court room with my head held high. I WAS INNOCENT I TELL YA! INNOCENT! Kyle was first. He walked up to that Mr. Your Honor what's his name and the judge said "State your full name please" and Kyle responded proudly "Kyle Noyes" I was so proud of him! Then the judge flipped through the papers and said "Ok I see you have taken care of this, DISMISSED" yeah!! Now my turn...oh boy I was nerveous...but I walked right up to the Judge and he said "Is your name Mishelle Noyes?" and I nodded yes and he flipped through my file and said "DISMISSED." and I started giggling. We got in the car and Kyle said "BE HUMBLE" and I said "I will" And that is the theme of the day. BE HUMBLE.
