Zack's Bad Day

Since our last post was about Zack I felt it would be appropiate to report on the bad day that Zack has had today. He was watching his dad and the other siblings enjoying a little riding adventure when he deciced to jump on a bike and head down the road. He has never been good at figuring out how to use hand brakes so going down hills can get rather hairy. Well, today Zack took a good spill off his bike onto the paved road and came back with lots of scrapes, blood and pain. It was a scary sight to behold but my fast thinking kids and their father decided that this would be too traumatic for mom to see so they whisked him in the house and into the bathroom. I was busy having a good little chat and some tea with some dear lady friends who stopped in for a quick visit and did not even notice the poor boy's predicament. Well, Praise God it was not as bad as it looked. After they got him cleaned up a bit they could see that this was not going to be a job for the emergency room at the hospital.

After they had him all bandaged up the first thing he wanted to do is to call his beloved Courtney and tell her (and Toby) to pray for him. So with that update, I will end with this picture and prayer request for a fast recovery for this battered boy.
