Like Father Like Son

Oh, what a day. I woke up this morning thinking I need to get the house cleaned top to bottom so that when the mockingjay comes out tomorrow I wouldn't feel so guilty for just sitting down and reading for hours. I did get some of the cleaning done and errands run, but I'm pretty sure there will be no mockingjay for me for a few more days.
The kids and I headed to my moms about 10 this morning to pick up some dishes I had left over there. Mom and I were talking in the living room, and the kids were out back playing when we heard Sammy crying. We both went out back and saw them sitting by the tandem bike and heard Andi screaming "He's stuck, he's stuck."
Sure enough 3 of Sammy's fingers were stuck in between the gear and chain. I'll spare you all the details because just thinking about it is making me nauseous, but in the end we were only able to get 2 of the fingers out unscathed. His left ring finger was actually severed from the nail bed up.
Andi was screaming, Sammy was screaming, mom and I were crying, we ran in the house, I wrapped up Sammy's hand while mom called Renee, who for the one millionth time(no exaggeration) saved the day. She happens to have a sister who works for an ambulatory surgeon who would see Sammy right then. We had already called 911 and the firemen were there wrapping his hand a little better, but before the ambulance got there we were already on our way to the surgery center, and Renee's girls took care of Andi all afternoon. My dad was able to give Sam a blessing in the car on the way, and Thad met us there.
The Dr was able to re-attach his finger and says he doesn't think there will be any permanent damage. He did wrap the hand and arm pretty high up, not out of medical necessity, but to keep Sam from getting the bandages off. It was a terrible, traumatic day, but this evening Sammy was running around playing like nothing happened. The whole thing from finger severing to taking him in to surgery took less than an hour, and while it felt like it was taking forever at the time, I can't help but feel like it was a miracle that things went so quickly and smoothly.The Lord was definitely taking care of Sammy today.
Thad would like to point out that today's incident beats his record of limb breaking at 2. Yay.
Here are pictures of Sammy tonight. Like I said, he's doing great and you would never know he had such a hard day. And yes, he will be shirtless for a few days, the wrapping is a little big to get through the shirt sleeves.
