It's amazing to me...

The human body is amazing to me. I realize that I'm probably really simple minded when it comes to this, and Mrs. Haid could really elaborate on the specifics on how it all works! But when I look at this picture from two weeks ago...













And then I see this picture from this morning...













And I realize how much Gabriel's little forehead has healed in that time, it just amazes me. It really does. I'm thankful that our bodies are designed to heal themselves. From something as small as a paper cut to something as big as a broken bone - or worse! When we eat something that our body rejects and we throw up, even as gross as it is, it's just our body taking care of itself.

I think that's pretty neat! :o)


Thank you, Nurse Jaimee, for helping me hold Gabriel (or...let's be honest...HOLD HIM DOWN) while he had his stitches taken out. I'm glad it was you.

And thank you Mr. Ray for watching Caleb and Sarah so I could go with just my little guy to his appointment. They always have so much fun with you!

It is a good thing that he is healing up ok. It is amazing to me to think by the time he is older that now big scar will be so tiny. Hope everything is good for your Easter weekend

It is amazing how our bodies work. Just another example of the workings of our awesome God!

Glad Gabriel's head has healed so quickly! I didn't realize you had a son named Gabriel. That's our oldest son's name...we call him Gabe for short :)

Thank the Lord for our amazing bodies!

Poor little guy! Glad he's got the stitches out now!

Your son is so beautiful!
God is so good!
Our son was burnt with cooking oil on his face when he was 2 and and within weeks you could not see a remnant of it. It is amazing.
Oddly enough, he fell around the same time and still has a scar from that. lol
