The Story Behind The Scrape

There really isn't one. Lehr and Eli were outside playing in the bitter cold. Eli was wearing his jacket (makes some arm movements difficult - think "The Christmas Story" and Ralphie's snowsuit) and a pair of gloves. One of the gloves was on the ground so Eli bent down to pick it up. He toppled and mopped the driveway with his face. Given the amount of hard falls and tumbles he's taken in the last two years, it's amazing that this is the first 'real' bang up he's received. He cried for less than a minute and only got really upset when Lehr showed him his reflection in the mirror. It looks much worse today as his wounds have started to scab. It's hard being a rough and tough boy!
