OUCH!

I was inside and Porter started screaming (you know the scream that he's just got hurt...bad!) I ran out and actually saw a scorpion run away. Brent calmly immediately called Poison control and they said to wash it, give him some tylenol and if it doesn't get better within 15-20 mins then take him in. Sure enough he was in great pain for that long and then had some tingling, numbing, throat hurt a little and water tasted funny for the rest of the day but the "Pain"ful part was over. Thank goodness. Since he's reacted so bad to normal bug bites I was afraid this might really affect him like an allergic reaction to a bee sting. Fortunetly, he was ok. They called and checked on him 6 more times that day. Thank goodness for Poison Control and Great daddy's!

Mason on the other hand ran inside and was just worried sick about Porter, trying to help where he could. The next day I heard another scream (same scream that says "EMERGENCY come quick!!) Porter was yelling that Mason was bleeding and Mason was screaming in pain. He fell and cut his lip pretty good. He was tough though and daddy again came to the rescue again by distracting him with some home videos that calmed him down instantly!

I love that man! Brent does things I just don't think to do. The boys are so sweet! Both instances the other was so worried about his brother. I love the care a love those two little boys have for each other. They don't always get along but for the most part they love playing and being together! What a blessing! Today Brent and I watched the two of them wrestling for a while. Porter had the upper hand since he's bigger but you could tell he was being careful not to be too rough. When Mason was done Porter would encourage him with positive reinforcement to keep him playing with him! He told him he is so good at this game. Mason loved it and kept telling us how good he was at this game!
