Owie!

Sorry I haven’t posted much lately! Life is busy but normal busy and apparently not interesting enough for me to take a lot of pictures.

We did have a little drama a few weeks ago on our way in to church. Jared was cold and decided it would be a good idea to tuck his arms inside his coat. Well, he tripped over an uneven sidewalk and couldn’t catch himself. His forehead took most of the impact, poor guy. By the time we picked him up and walked in to church he had a giant goose egg growing out the side of his head. Mike said as I was carrying Jared by a woman she turned to stare. That made Mike kind of angry and Jared was looking pretty bad so we decided to turn around and leave. First, though, we stopped by the café area to get some ice. The ladies there were so kind to Jared who was being so brave. The thing he remembers most about that day was that they gave him his own juice to drink.

So, we turned around and left church and decided to stop by my mom’s house to have her look at him. She works at Children’s Hospital and was helpful to reassure us that Jared was doing ok and what to keep an eye out for.

Here you can sort of see by his profile how far out the bump went.

My dad tried to help Jared feel better by giving him a little Super Man figure. That was also Jared’s favorite memory from a day I don’t think he’ll soon forget. Neither will we!
