DOGGONE EMBARRASSING

Monday’s discussion of nerdy ways to hurt your neck has a capper: our daughter Eden went to her friend’s neighbor’s house over the weekend because he can do superb card tricks.

While they were there, they learned that he had recently suffered a concussion while merely sitting on his couch in his family room. It seems he dropped something, bent down to pick it up . . . and simultaneously, his 120-pound Doberman raced across the room, ducking under the coffee table, and coming up for air on the other side – right where the man was bending down.

Kaboom! They butted heads. The knot on the head of the big Doberman plunged into the man’s cranium.

The poor guy got nauseated and dizzy, had to go to the emergency room . . . and then got another headache trying to ‘xplain it all to the doctors, insurance people and co-workers.

Owwwwww-woooooooo!!!!!!!

Prayer request: I didn’t realize that another person I really admire had a birthday Monday. Keri owns the preschool we take our Maddy to, and does a fabulous job. Her first year of business has had its challenges, and she’s balancing a husband and two young daughters on top of it all. So Lord, we lift up Keri for Your special attention, love and grace in the coming year. Show her Your beauty, O “fairer than the children of men,” and bless her for all that she does for children and their families. (Psalm 45:2)
