Whoopsie Daisies

Well, it's official. We really do have kids. How do we know? Because today we took our first injury ER trip. What happened, you ask? Well, it went something like this. Our dainty little 5 year old girl came bounding and bouncing down the hallway all proud of the outfit she had just chosen and put on for the day. She emerged giddy and still bouncing in the living room to show Mommy and Daddy her cute outfit. Then she, in all of her excitement, somehow caught her socks in the carpet and down she went... head first into the edge of the coffee table. Whack!

Overall, she was a brave little girl having received 2 stitches inside and 5 stitches outside her cut. She did get a treat later in the day too. Usually ice cream would be an appropriate treat, but we were going to a birthday party later where there would be ice cream and cake. So, we took her to Blockbuster where she could pick the movie of her choice. Besides, this treat will help her fulfill doctor's orders: take it chill and easy so as not to bump and potentially reopen the wound.

Poor little girl. But what a trooper she was. And, Pink Puppy proved to be a faithful companion throughout this day.
