Hampton, Va. - Hampton Police are still investigating what caused the driver of a Jeep to lose control and run into a home in the 1800 block of Andrews Blvd. in Hampton on Friday morning.

Three adults and three children were inside of the home at the time of the crash. The Jeep crashed through the family's 2-year-old daughter's bedroom. The little girl's name is Miracle.

"I'm really thankful right now. I feel like I need to cry because I'm really thankful that she's alive today," Miracle's mom, Christina Wise told NewsChannel 3.

Miracle was asleep in her mother's room at the time, which the family says is a miracle in itself.

"I feel really blessed that The Lord was looking over me this morning. He looks over me every day, but today must have been really special day," Wise said.

Crews are now working to board up the home.

The family is now staying with other relatives. They had just moved into the home two weeks ago.

Police say they are still investigating the crash, and right now there aren't any charges.
