• May. 4, 2007 - Superman.......NOT!!!

How do children make it through life if one piece?

I have 3 boys that are pretty rough and tumble.  They tumble, and they are rough!

Tonight, my youngest did a face-plant on the side walk, with nothing to break his fall...but his face.  I am so thankful that he is alright!  People screaming my name in the middle of a pleasant covered dish cub scout dinner at a local park, is not what I was expecting.  Finding my husband holding my son gingerly as blood oozed out of somewhere on his forehead, was also not what I was expecting!

But several hours, 6 stitches, and a popsicle later, he is as good as new.  What more, he is his same cocky self.

"Mom,  I was lying on the ground with blood dripping out of my head, and this kid says 'Are you all right?'"

"What is he THINKING?  No I am NOT all right!!!  Dude, I just jumped like Superman and then did a face plant on the sidewalk!  Go get help!!"

I am glad this time that I can stand on the back side of an accident, and have a smile creep across my face.

• May. 5, 2007 - I Spent Much of My Childhood

Posted by Dad2Three
I Spent Much of My Childhood in the Energency Room. Pretty sure mom knew the doctors there on a first-name basis. Stitches ten or twelve times, broken ankle, broken arm, broken foot, BB gun shot all the way through my foot (don't ask), car wrecks as a teen (more broken bones and then some) and others I'm sure I've missed (probably on purpose). They'll get through it, but fifteen years from now, you won't know how. Glad he's doing fine, I'll bet Bekka wasn't the only one peeing her pants.
