Mackie Fell.....

Today, after Church, it was such a pretty day, so I let the boys play outside. Mackie has been learning to go up and down our back porch steps (2 steps) and he was going up and down and up and down over and over. He was doing it really well! I was standing in the doorway of our kitchen watching him as he started down the steps.....down 1..........then....nothing but falling forward baby! Right into the gravel nose first! Oh!!!!!!!!!!

I about died!

His nose was cut on the bridge and the top of it was cut in a couple of places too. His actual nose was bleeding from the inside and he had a mouthful of gravel. He wouldn't let me clean him up....just hold him! Mark was working, and Mack and Dorothy had gone driving around, so there I was.......panicking!!!!! (I do that a lot lately).

I called Mark and told him what happened......of course,....he didn't know what to tell me since he wasn't here......I told him that I'd take pictures and send them to him...........made PERFECT sense to me! I did and he said to go ahead and bring him to Boone......He had found that the Emergency Clinic was opened on Sunday! THANK GOD!!! I took the boys and we waited, but found that Mackie would most definately be o.k.! Nothing broken or damaged. No blood in the ears or nose. Whew!!! Thank the Lord!!!!!
