after seven and a half years...

i've been wondering for years how and when it would happen for chas. his first major accident; his first set of stitches. at least five. the doctor said she lost count exactly, but five is a good number. that's a serious gash, isn't it? and doesn't it seem...uncanny...that it is in the exact same place devan has his scar? that's crazy weird if you ask me.

and i couldn't help but think that someday some girl is going to notice the scar and it'll be one of those things she just loves about chas' face, just like i love dev's scar. wow. that's something to think about. she's out there somewhere, growing up even as we speak. here's hoping she has super cool parents...named mandi and jared??? :) go tressa!

but i digress -- chas was a trooper during the entire er stay and i was so grateful that a school friend's mom took cole and avery to her house to play so i only had to hold on to ike during the three hour ordeal. thank goodness for good people like susan! and thank goodness it was Chas' eyebrow and not his eye! God shows us blessings everyday.

Sorry about the stitches. I hope you don't mind my stalking...I love keeping track of my Porter "relatives." I can't believe how old Chas looks in this picture! Ike is adorable too!
