The last couple of days I have been thinking how neglected our blog has been the last couple months. I was thinking of all the things that have happened and what I should write about...
Well, this morning a "Blog Worthy" event happened....
Let me start at the beginning.
Peter had dropped off Dakota and I had asked Graham to go up and get the Legos I had built for the boys to play with yesterday.
I then went downstairs to go to the bathroom.
I heard Graham crying... really hard.
My first thought, "great the boys are already fighting over the toys."
Graham then comes downstairs and his face is all bloody!
He proceeded to tell me he fell down the stairs and got hurt. I carried him to the kitchen and grabbed a clean towel and held it to his chin; which now had a lovely split in it and was bleeding all over the place. (at which point Dakota told me that Graham was hurt and that his Legos broke... which was pretty funny!)
For a split second I thought "Maybe I can butterfly bandage this." But I knew it needed stitches.
I quickly put on my shoes and coat, put on Graham's coat and put both boys in the car.
Tommy met us at Parker Adventist Hospital. That comforted Graham to have his daddy there, Tommy took Graham and checked him in.
Well, long story short.... we are home, Graham is doing great.
Right before they stitched up his chin (yes, he was still in his jammies!)
They put numbing gel on a cotton swab and "taped" it to his head...
Graham and Dakota watching Beauty and the Beast waiting for his chin to numb and for the Doctor to come in.
They were both such good sports and Graham was such a trooper!
At one point he said "it's ok, I'm tough. I'm tough"
The staff gave them each a Beanie Baby and a Book... that definitely made the entire experience easier! Gotta love Parker Adventist!!
I will never say I have
nothing to blog about again!!
