His First Scab!
I don’t know if today is just more interesting than other days or if I’m just closer to a computer. Here’s my second post of the day:
Isaac cut his finger today and it bled. 
We washed it off and bandaged with a little antibiotic ointment and as I cared for his injury he asked me questions about his finger and what would happen. He soon became very excited about the prospect of getting a scab. When I told him we’d take the bandage off when it has a scab, he eagerly asked if everyone would be able to see his scab. Within 10 minutes he started wanting to see if the scab was there yet. He had to call his grandma Bunny to tell her about the impending scab and asked me if I would take pictures of it to send to her. He also suggested that I send pictures of his scab to his Great-grandma in Seattle. I told him that it might take a day for his scab to come. He said that he thought he should rest until the scab appeared. I’m a little worried now that he won’t get the scab that he’s hoping for.
It’s days like these I think how glad I am that I have a boy.
did the anticipated scab appear? i hope he wasn’t disappointed!
The scab didn’t come, and strangely he was ok with that. The next morning he said he could hear his scab growing, but when I looked at his cut, I told him that it looked like his body was already healing it without a scab and he got excited about that! So I guess his heart wasn’t set upon the scab.
