So God Made a Farmer

"Boys Who Climb Trees" by the Mother Who Takes Many Pictures of Them Doing So

disclaimer: these pictures were taken on the same night that 

they were Swingin.

Yes, that is still pizza on their faces.

Swingin'

(we'd had pizza for supper--I guess he couldn't find a napkin

and since he had short sleeves on, his shirt wasn't an option like usual.)

Christopher attached this pipe cleaner

to the bathroom door to
"make it easier to pull shut."

Yeah, 'cause the knob was proving to be 

a lot of work.

Whew.

Glad we figured out an alternative.

I wrote about this on facebook, but not all of you that read here would know about that. :-)   


We are VERY thankful for God's hand of protection over our son Nathaniel. 
On Monday night, a cow slipped and fell on top of him in a stall, trapping him underneath her. 
Two broken ribs, a bruised heart muscle, deep tissue bruising on his legs along with other scrapes and bruises from head to toe. 
We know it could have turned out VERY differently and it is hard not to let this mama's mind travel in all the ways that it could have turned out. 


He got out of the hospital on Wednesday and is doing well here at home, however we both are really missing the room service method of the way patients (and parents!) eat while at the hospital.
