Toes

As a child I remember running barefoot in the summer. I also remember how painful it was when I would stub my toe. It's been so hot here lately that the girls have been running through the sprinklers in the evenings...at least the evenings when its not storming! Ellery comes in today to go potty and I look down and her big toe was bleeding. Assuming that she had does this a while ago and daddy took care of it, I asked how her toe was. Silly me. She looks down and see's the blood and immediately starts to cry, well, more of a scream-cry...and limp (which she wasn't doing right before I asked). There's something to be said for the power of suggestion.
