Ouchies and Joy

Where to start? The last few weeks have been quite unique, but also fun. Let’s start with unique.

We have truly been blessed with healthy children and it’s a blessing that I cannot take for granted. However, the last two weeks have kind of turned the tables on us a bit. Our son fell against the edge of our coffee table and split his ear lobe. Literally, split it wide open. Not a life or death thing but the goriest thing I’ve ever dwelt with our children.

A week later, his siter fell off our bed and landed on her shoulder. She was on the couch in pain most of the day. A visit to the chiropractor told us her collarbone wasn’t broken, but to keep ice on it. Almost a week later, she’s improving, but still doesn’t use her left arm much.

The fun. Last night we went to a farm party, hosted by a family from Crosspointe. (the church we attend  here) It was such a fun time of fellowship and they had so many things for us to do. We watched them milk cows. They had baby goats, rabbits and chicks to pet. Tractors to ride. Games to play. Food to eat. People to chat with. Friends to enjoy. Our oldest is at the age where she loves social interaction with other people and its so fun to watch her. We are blessed to have people to call family here.
