A sweet reminder


I had an elaborate post started about the rest of our drive, but plans changed this morning with a fall into a bookshelf that landed Hallie and I in the ER with lacerations on our foreheads. Poor Hallie took the brunt of the fall ending up with 4 stitches, I narrowly escaped stitches, and will most likely only be left with emotional scars.


As I was rushing around the house crying trying to stop the bleeding from both of our heads, changing diapers, and trying to get out of the house to go to the ER Micah calmly walked around the house giving looks of concern on several occasions. Upon return home, I found random things pulled out of the bathroom scattered around the house, so I'd say he made the most of his time! But most sweetly of all, right before we were ready to leave the house, he looked at me, folded his arms, and gave me his high-pitched uhh uhh (the little whine he gives when he wants something). He wanted to say a prayer... what a sweet reminder from a sweet little boy.

I love that kid.

Hope you're both okay...elaborate on what happened. Sweet Micah to think of praying for his mom and sister that he loves so much.

Oh no!! So sad!!! Hope you're both dried up, stitched up as necessary, and feeling better soon! That's so cute about Micah asking to say a prayer! Maiya claps whenever we finish a prayer. She thinks it's great fun, at this point! ;-)
