Ramsey brought “Jacob” with us from Australia.  He’s a naughty little imaginary friend who is about two and loves to cause mischief around the Beaird house.  If someone writes on the couch – Jacob.  If someone hurts one of the kids – Jacob.  If someone tears up a toy – Jacob.  Just this weekend, Ramsey also found an imaginary dog.  Really, he found a leash.  He thinks there’s a dog named ‘Ape’ on the end of it.  Ramsey and Ape were out for a walk yesterday afternoon when Ram got distracted and slammed into the corner of an open car door. 

His poor little cheek had about an half-inch gash in it.  This, of course, required stitches.  I say of course because it was Labor Day and our only option was the emergency room.  Ramsey was a CHAMP.  He was papoosed and received five stitches on his cheek without crying once!  His eye is a little black and swollen today, but he’s feeling pretty good. . .
