OUCH

We are what he made us, created in Christ Jesus for good works    Ephesians 2:10

What does one sweet little boy

Plus one spider man flip flop

Plus one rusty old nail equal

Well it equals a little boy, not listening and stepping on the nail and hurting his foot.

Yesterday evening after supper, Jake went to Mr. Hamiltons house (our neighbor who is more like family than just a neighbor) to "help him" like he does just about every day.

I was on the phone when I heard Mr. Hamilton bringing Jake in and Jake was crying. He had stepped on a nail out behind Mr. Hamilton's workshop. I dont know who was more upset, Jake or Mr. Hamilton. He said he told Jake not to get over there but Jake being the little boy that he is, didnt listen.

I got him cleaned up and let him soak his foot in some warm salt water to try to help draw the soarness out. He was pitiful. Trying to walk. And just to get an idea, he is a dramatic person, so it took everything he had to walk on his hands bc he couldnt even put his foot on the floor bc it hurt, then the very next moment he would be moving around like nothing happen until he thought about it and then the world would stop and he would be cripple again. It was so funny watching him.

I did let him stay home today bc it was a little swollen. Maybe he will stay off of it a little. I also called the dr to make sure that his shots covered something like this and if not I can take him and let them look at it so Lord willing it want get infected.

Please just pray for him and his small injury. If you know Jake, you know that he never stops and he knows nothing but full speed ahead.

On another note, MS McKenzie Kate Austin is doing much better this morning. Her mom said she had a restful night and has not run any fever since yesterday morning. Thank you for praying for her and her family.
