Our FIRST ER visit on the road

Well, it was a beautiful day, the sun was slowly starting to fade, when Hannah appeared at the door.  She was crying; painfully crying, with blood all over her hand.

She was trying to feed one of the horses in a nearby pasture, and it obviously thought her finger was a juicy blade of grass! 

Thankfully, all she lost was a finger nail.  The whole nail, and recieved a small puncture.  Todd drove her to the ER with Zach by her side comforting her the whole way.  :)  Sweet brother.  :)  And  I stayed home with the other children waiting for phone calls and updates.

I don't know what was worse for Hannah; getting bit by her beloved, favorite animal in the whole-wide world, or the awful pain she felt from that beloved animal!
We are praising the Lord that this was the only injury.  It could have been SO much worse. 
They sewed in a plastic nail, and gave her antibiotics and pain meds.  She has also gone back to see the beautiful horses, and seems to have no lasting fears.  God is so good.  :)

Please pray that she will heal safely, with out any infection.
Blessings,
Steph
