*Gasp!* Gash!

Joseph's perfect streak of nothin'-but-bruises has fallen. We went to visit Cynthia, to say hi, and to get the kids away from Jonathan so he could do homework. There was much giggling, and Baby Einstein watching, and the usual running-around-being-silly. Joseph ran into the dining area to show me something, slipped on the wood in his socks, and smacked his eye on the low Korean table they've got. He now has a horizontal cut along the outer edge of the upper lid of his right eye, right along the bone. And he has an appointment for pictures, Thursday morning. Sigh... He was a real trooper while we got him cleaned up and fell right asleep with some cuddling and songs with Mommy, but we didn't think to pull the cut closed when we put that first band aid on, and I'm not sure if it will close up, now. He's got some tape on it, now, so we'll have to see. Still, everyone has to get their first scar sometime.

That couldn't have been easy for YOU! I hope it heals okay, and I hope he still got his pictures taken!
