So let me set this situation up. First, I am sure alot of you know that we have had problems with our crazy neighbor so here it goes.
My wife asked me to go get a late night snack. So I left with my ccw piece. My wife also has hers on her at all times. So I left and went and got the food and came home. Apparently my son earlier in the day kicked a soccer ball in the driveway when leaving I didnt see the ball and upon returning when pulling in the driveway I ran over the ball ( we live semi secluded in the country ) so when I ran the ball over with my truck obviously there was a "POP" noise, my wife heard this from inside the home and she jumped up grabbed our son and took him upstairs ran back downstairs and flipped on our flood lights outside, the door flings open and my wife has her firearm drawn scanning the yard. She yells out "Troy, are you ok" I responded yes and she let her gaurd down. I am so very glad that my wife has had the iniative to react when she fears something may be wrong.
She later told me that the first thing that ran through her mind was that there was a scuffle between me and my neighbor and there was a gunshot ( the ball popping ) and she didnt know who fired and she was protecting me and the house. I almost feel ashamed I should be the one protecting her. Moral of the story is I am so glad my wife is not a sheep and that you can never talk enough to your spouse about personal defense and what to do in certain situations.
