Not Spencer's Day

Spencer is learning to walk! He is using a spider-man 4-wheeler that Jonah received for Christmas several years ago, and a new grocery cart walker Grandma Gray gave to him for his birthday. Unfortunately, he is not as graceful yet as he could be. Last Sunday, he was walking around the kitchen table and chairs, while leaning on them, when he made it to his high chair, where he promptly fell and cut his lip. First wounding! Then I had him with me a hometeaching family, and he was walking around the front room with one of those really old plastic child grocery carts, when he tripped and fell, and fell on the lip of the cart and cut open the bridge of his nose right between his eyes, and underneath one of his eyes. Poor kid! More blood! Finally, he was playing with Jonathan before bed, and they bonked heads. No blood this time, but that was it for Spencer! The following pictures are after the 2nd tumble...

Hey! I was thinking about your little Johnathon today while I was driving and how cute he was when he read me that book, and honestly he is a better reader then probably 90% of my starting 1st graders, which means he's probably way better than 100% of the Kindergarten kids, if I were you- if you think he's old enough to handle it- I'd consider having him skip Kindergarten. I just think kids usually enjoy school more when they are challenged and not bored, but I don't know his maturity level, but you should look into it if you think he could handle it!
Just a thought- have a good day!

I've heard of child abuse, but this really takes the cake guys! Take your aggression out on each other and leave the poor kids out of it. Someone call Child Services...
