One family is lucky to be alive after being saved by their baby. Mother woke to babys cough to find house on fire. A 6 month old baby saved the family. Mother had left candle burning. The glass broke...Doesn't this make you think miracles can happen?

That is a nice story. It is odd that the mom heard the baby cough but didn't smell the smoke herself. Hrm.

I think god had a little something to do with that..making a babys cough heard and enough to wake a mother up so she could see the fire.. this is one reason I no longer leave a room that has a candle lit for no more then 15 minutes at a time. I had my bathroom catch fire because of a candle..it did alot of damage..So I like to use Glade Plugins and those little pots that you plug up simmering pots. But I do use candles still on some occasions.

That family is very fortunate to all still be alive. I never leave a candle burning and leave the room anymore. I used to do it all of the time, but after reading stories about candles burning down houses and killing families I started putting them out when I leave the room.
