Today marks the first baseball injury in the family...with the boys. At school Kamryn was jumping on bleachers and fell and hit his shin. When he got home he was laughing and showing it to me but didn't tell me it was from jumping on the bleachers.
Later, at baseball practice, they were playing a game for practice and Kamryn took two baseballs to the same shin in the same spot! What are the odds of that happening. He didn't come to right away so I didn't find out about it until practice was over. He came limping to the car tears streaming down his face. I asked him what happened and he told me and that he heard a crack when the second ball hit his shin. We left practice and went to get Kristopher in Adams then headed to Walla Walla.
We got in the ER pretty fast and the doctor wanted to do xrays. The results came back and he has a tibia contusion. Thankfully it isn't broken but a little embarrassed that I took him in for that. He will be sore for awhile.
He just got over being afraid of the ball and doing a good job catching it...I wonder how far it will set him back...

What is going on...
There is much discussion all over the place about Osama Bin Laden. I have a few things to say about it and not because I think I am right but because this is how I feel :)
First, thank God they caught him. I know that sounds harsh but he had to pay the punishment for his crime. He was on the run and because the severity of his crime the decison was made to shoot when they saw him. Now, if you think about other criminals they may not be shot when they are found but they are locked up and they have to face the punishment for their crimes. Is Osama any diffferent that people would call it revenge when we get the person we are after? We cannot just forget something that big and give him a slap on the wrist and say "no, no". I understand that some people are choosing to treat it as revenge and that everything is going to be hunkydory now. That is so not the case...
Justice was given here people. He was killed for the death of thousands of people. Sure, we could have locked him away forever, which I believe was the plan at the start, but when you run and are still threatening then you should be stopped in any way possible.
We need to pray now more than ever for ourselves and for the WORLD!! Just because Osama is dead does not mean our troops get to come home, or we are safe, or no more death...RETALIATION people!! He may not be as big as some of the others out there now that we have chased him for years but, other enemies have developed and they will take advantage of the fact the we are so caught up in the Osama death and they will attack when we are not looking.
There is no right or wrong answer or belief when it comes to the death of O.B.L. and everyone is entitled to their own opinion. We do however need to remember that GOD is in control but we need to be on our KNEES begging for mercy. We do not need to turn against each other because we have different ideas, we need to stick together because we are Christians! In the end, we are all going to the same place to be with our heavenly Father!
Dear Father, be with your children now as they face what is to come. Give us strength and courage to stand tall when the time comes and to remember to love everyone. In Jesus name, AMEN!
