Thanks Where Thanks is Due

This morning Joel and I delivered flowers and a card of thanks to the doctor who treated Joel after he broke his femur one year ago. We included these two pictures in the card.

I showed Joel the one of him in the cast, but I couldn't tell if he remembered being in that cast (for 7 weeks!). We're so thankful that Joel recovered full use of his leg within a month of the removal of his cast. We're grateful to God we live in a country where his injury was able to be properly treated.

Now one of our main goals in parenting Joel is to keep him from breaking any other bones. Just last night I caught him standing on the arm of the swiveling computer chair. Boys!
