Ryan is learning one of life’s greatest lessons. God made our bodies to heal and to help our ouchies heal we get scabs. Ry says, “[The ouchie] feels like it’s becoming pizza crust.” While not as appitizing as pizza crust is, it does help him heal and actually feels a lot like pizza crust. Are you wondering how did my little one  give himself what appears to be a scar on his neck from being held at knife point? It is sickening to my mommy stomach to hear the story so I’ll make it brief. While playing on the top/back of the couch he decided to take down the window shade cord that was tossed ‘up high’ on the curtain rod and place it under his chin. Oh yea and then he jumped (fell?) straight down with all of his weight hanging on the cord under his chin. Thank God he decided not to wrap it around his neck. He was able to release the cord and land without major trama. Ryan was scared after the incident and wanted to be comforted so we left the HUGE lecture for later that night. Lessoned learned on both fronts. So please wrap up your shade cords higher and tighter than you even think neccessary if you have little ones around. Peter was only 3 feet away when this happened to Ryan (3 1/2) just think if it were a toddler getting tangled up! Enough said.
