Birthday gal!

Our firstborn Haley is having a birthday today, and we hope it is less exciting than yesterday!

Logan was pressure washing a building roof, and proceeded to mis-step and fall off!  A bush broke the painful fall, and hopefully helped matters.  Except for a few thorns.

He was mighty lucky--he only broke off the "wings" of four of his lumbar vertebrae.  He was given two pain pills and sent home.  I just now spoke with Haley; he is sore but has been up walking a bit this morning already.  She ordered him back to bed while she goes to get a script for the pain.  He is sore in places he didn't know he had, but a mighty lucky guy.  We prefer sore over worse scenarios.

So we are hoping Haley's birthday today will be a little less exciting than yesterday's experiences, bless Logan's heart.

We are all thankful Logan's guardian angel was watching over him, and we are grateful for all the prayers on their behalf.  He's gonna be down for awhile...slightly mobile but unable to work.  I see a lot of TV watching in his immediate future, interspersed with lots of boredom!  Poor baby.  Suck it up, buttercup.  You are alive...and able to walk...and able to get back to normal.

Life is precious, and VERY good, y'all.

Happy Birthday, Haley.  We love you bunches!!!

Thank you all! Logan is recovering well too, but this year is certainly a birthday to remember.
