Mr. Foot Down here. Little did we know the prophetic nature of the last blog post. Right before bedtime tonight, Jack and Theo were in the bedrooms playing, and Mrs. Thumb Up and I were in the kitchen cleaning up.
Suddenly we hear Jack's tell-tale scream when something has gone wrong, and Theo starting to wail. We both ran to the scene and found Theo bleeding profusely from the mouth. Mrs. Thumb Up is masterful in these situations, and we were able to clean the mouth, identify the gash on the lip, and begin to calm everything (and everyone) down. Theo sat in Mrs. Thumb Up's lap for our family Bible time and some extra reading after that and then went to bed as normal.
So how did it happen? Jack told us that they had been wrestling in our bedroom and Theo had fallen and hit his face on the frame of the bed and cut himself. Theo was adamant that he had hit his head on the bed, and so it was okay, but he hit his lip on the metal frame, and that's why he was hurt. So it turns out that wrestling really is hard on your body.

No better place to be after a mishap than Mom or Dad's lap.
