Jakes the same way, he is defiantly double jointed (there's some really
freaky things the kid does with his hands and doesn't even realize it!) and
has an incredible tolerance for pain but I have noticed lately that he seems
to react more when he gets hurt, I didn't know if it has been learned
(especially since 'little Mr.bruised-a-lot' Joey has been here) or on the
other scary hand, if he has started doing damage to joints and such and it
does actually hurt more when he falls.  Mental note to ask that one next
time we are at the docs!
