God is Good! All the Time!

Last Friday, Connor fell off our roof. He was fixing a room leak during a torrential downpour (yes, we know what you must be thinking). When he put his weight on the top rung of the ladder, coming back down, it slid out from under him (or slid out from the rubber mat he had it "securely" placed on). From the back of the house I heard the sound that only a man falling off your roof could make. When I saw him lying flat on his back, on our back deck, it was a tangle of Connor and ladder.

Thank everyone for their prayers! Connor surely has Guardian Angels. His CT Scan checked out good. Apart from being unable to move for a few days and a few knarley bruises, his body remained nicely intact.

The Ladder vs. Connor - ladder wins

But Connor gets a good dent in.


Reminds me of how God has kept his eye on our whole family since moving to Maryland - there have been multiple potential catastrophes:

Noah - Falls backward out of our SUV onto the cement. About 5 large knots, but the CT Scan checks out good. We are definitely one hard-headed group.

Jackie - 17 stitches, wrist incident (unloading dishwasher - coffee mug wins) Conveniently, I do this with a 10-month old - days before our big move.

Needless to say, we are keeping the GBMC Emergency department in business.
