Leon’s exuberance got the best of him the other night. With a mighty slam of the bathroom door, he caught the end of his pinky. OUCH!! Papa wrapped his bleeding finger with a washcloth and called on Andrea, the family medicial consultant. Andrea cleaned and bandaged the wound and also offered Tylenol, a chunk of cheese, and some popcorn, and released him to Mama’s care for observation and control.

Leon has to take it slowly for a few days while his finger heals. That’s a tall order for an active almost 6 year old and an even taller order for the mother who has to remind him.

We are all praying for Leon’s speedy healing!
