The wicked Hoe

 As any military wife will tell you.... if anything is going to go wrong, or any catastrophe happen to your family - it is going to happen when your husband is gone.  Yep...yet again!  We just didn't expect it to happen so soon...THE day that Clay left, yep THE DAY he left, Aparri got hit in the eye with a garden hoe.  CJ and Aparri were playing in Nana and Papa's garden - Laura was weeding - and Aparri got a little too close to her brother who was breaking up a dirt clod..and yep, right in the eye.  We took her to the ER, gave her a priesthood blessing, and had several follow up visits with the optimologist.  After a week - the optomologist said that the cut on her eye was healing nicely and no surgery/ stitches would have to be performed, and she shouldn't have any permenate damage done to her eye.  We feel truly blessed and watched over.  Look at that wicked thing...it is awful!  It could have been sooo much worse, we are so grateful that the Lord is watching over our little family.
