I can't get him to stop running. He runs. He runs everywhere. He runs ALL the time. And yesterday was no different. He was running down the sidewalk when he tripped and did a face plant. He scraped his knees. And his face. AND he has a pretty nice bump on his head. He looks better today but last night it was awful!
Luckily the tears didn't last for too long. It helps when you have 4 adults attending to your every wish. He got some ice for his head, lots of kisses and he even got to watch a movie. At least until he got bored and was up running again....yikes!
And here's an updated pic of his burn

Isn't it wonderful to say though that he gets these owies from running...considering his early struggles...he could be not running at all.
I remember my mom telling me once she was afraid to take one of us kids in for a doc apt because we'd fallen recently and had bruises. She went anyway and made sure the doc knew how they'd really gotten there. He said to her, "If a child came in without any bruises or bumps I'd be worried. It means they are NORMAL." What a great doc.
