Ouch!

On Sunday Michael was running around playing with the boys before church. He just happened to get a little too close to one of the dining room chairs and he clipped it with his elbow. You know that feeling when you hit your funny bone...it hurts, but not horrible, but it still hurts. By the time we got in the van to go to church Michael was saying it still hurt and he rolled up his sleeve to look at it. He had a bump about the size of a golf ball right on the elbow. You could tell it was a bunch of fluid built up. At church he went up for prayer because it was still bothering him. By the end of the church the swelling was gone and he was feeling better.

Last night this is what it looked like! Michael always sits like this in bed and I was sitting in my chair in the bedroom with the sun shining in and I thought it was a funny shadow, but then I looked closer. That is one gnarly bruise!!!

The entire elbow is bruised and Michael does NOT bruise easily at all! All of that nastiness is from one tiny bump on the elbow! The funny thing is the color doesn't really look like a typical bruise it looks like he just happened to get really really tan on that one spot!
