It's all in good fun until someone loses an eye........:-D

Name that quote! No, no, rest assured - no one has lost an eye.

However, it's the first broken bone for the Davenport Family (at least this branch)! Last night at church, Nathan was rough housing with some of the older boys and somehow, during one of the "group wrestling" sessions (I guess that's the guy version of a "group hug") he got thrown down on his shoulder and broke his left collar bone. Thankfully, two of our elders are MD's and one of them went and checked him out right away, could see that it was broken, and whisked us all off to his office to get fitted for a brace and a sling. Which he has to wear for ONE MONTH.

That's a long time for a 6-year-old boy. Or his mother.

Anyway, he's been a real trooper through the whole thing. And, of course, the Lord was very merciful to allow it to be dealt with so quickly and easily!He even slept through the night, though our doctor warned us that collar bone breaks are notoriously painful. He's been pretty sore today, but still doing what he can (or what Mom lets him 8-D )! I guess it's a good thing he's right handed!
