The First Real Injury

Thought all you squeamish types may appreciate a picture of our first real injury since we've been here (I did clean it up first though). While we have had plenty of bruises, scrapes, and minor burns, this is the first "real" one. Mikayla stepped on some wire that Steve was using to make a fence for Gizmo. I couldn't get a picture that showed how long and deep it goes because it kinda follows the crease of her big toe. As you can see, we are working very hard at keeping it clean (infection is a bigger concern here). She wears a dressing on it and socks and shoes all the time right now. Please pray with us that infection does not set in. We are watching it closely. Don't worry - her tetanus shots are current!
