Bumps and Bruises: That's What Little Boys are Made Of

Remember as a kid falling on cement and skidding your knee? Winston did that today, but scuffed up his face. Seeing the scratches took me right back to feeling my own cement burns after biffing it as a kid after running and falling on the sidewalk.

He has been going down stairs by himself for about a month now, but he never fell until Saturday. It was a bad-looking, but otherwise safe fall off the steps of my parents' cabin porch (luckily he landed on a pile of pine needles instead of a nearby rock bigger than his head).

Today he fell off the first step of our front porch and has the worst bumps he's ever received. He looks miserable in the photo, but perked right up after Sam gave him the cellphone.
