Jesus Shows Up in the Oddest Places

We had a little accident here the other day. Felicity fell face first onto my ceramic tile floor. After all the blood was cleared she had quite a big gash in her lip. What a very scary and horrible experience for her at the ER!

When we got back home I took her into the bathroom to show her the stitches. She smiled and said,

"Jesus is on my face!"
(the stitches made a cross)

  7. Oh sweet girl. I am so glad it wasn't worse. Jesus does make himself known at the most unlikely moments, doesn't he?

  9. Love the innocense of children-because what comes out of their mouth is typically what is on their minds and hearts.

  13. Now, that is seeing the good in a challenge! I take it she is an optimist - always finding the good. She is beautiful with her cross! Hope you've recovered, too!

  20. Poor thing! That's really cute, though. I, too, fell flat on my face (at the age of 5) and ended up with 12 stitches (6 inside, 6 outside) on my bottom lip. It wasn't fun, but I did get to drink a lot of shakes, so that part was memorable :)
