"Consider it pure joy, my brothers, whenever you face trials of many kinds, because you know that the testing of your faith develops perseverance. " ~ James 1:2-3
So, a few weeks ago, the wierdest thing happened. I was cleaning out Harper's toes when I found this:
It kind of freaked me out. I was able to pull a strand of hair out, but it was so deep, I couldn't tell if I had gotten it all, especially since it didn't seem to get any better (by forming back into place). It looked like it might have broken the skin it was so red, so then I was also worried about infection. It was a Sunday afternoon though, so the only place I could go was the hospital. The doctor called it a "Hair Tourniquet" and confirmed that I did get everything out of it, the skin was not broken, and that the line may take several days to go away.
It took over a week for that line to go away!! I'd never seen anything like it (aside from a tight hairband on the wrist, which hardly compares) and I have 8 siblings and my mom did daycare!
At least our first ER visit was a mellow one.

ow.
do you think it hurt?
I think that is so strange, but mostly, I'm glad he's ok, and that's the most excitement in the ER you'll ever have, as in not much.
xo.
