Jack's burn update

Since the first post on Jack's burn is pretty vague let me tell a little more.  Jack was burned on Friday April 3rd.  He was hanging out at the neighbors.  They had been working in the yard all day and burning brush in a big bonfire.  Jack was a little to close to the fire trying to stir things up and a spark went up his pant leg.  He was wearing pants with a synthetic liner that lit on fire and melted to his leg.  Phil was quick to act and dropped and rolled Jack and patted out the fire with his leather gloves.  Stephanie's dad was over and quickly cut Jack's pant leg off.  We were not at home and neither was Stephanie.  She was called home for the emergency and quickly doctored Jack's wound.  Jack did great and was very brave.  
Kathryn would like to be in the blog too!  Isn't she cute.
Jack at the doctors office.
Jack asked to have his photo taken in the tub to show what a pain it is for him to take a bath.  He still looks cool though doesn't he.
