All Stiched up


 An accidental drawer left opened, meant stitches in the nose for Kyler. He was brave and only had three stitches, so no real harm done. Although, I was a little annoyed that the ER nurse practitioner did such a sloppy job on the stitches!


But this made ER trip number two in just four weeks! The first was a little more traumatic for everyone when Kyler fell off a picnic table at soccer practice. He didn't move a muscle for 15 minutes, and the ambulance was called. He had fallen onto the concrete with the metal bar of the picnic table at the base of his head. Gradually, he was able to move his arms, then legs, and about 5-10 minutes later could then talk again. It was one of my scariest parenting moments! It made me realize how quickly life can change! Fortunately, he was OK and all is well. By miracle, Dave showed up after work right after it happened and gave him a blessing.


Having a boy is wonderful, but these accidents are harder on mom than anyone! Hopefully, I can keep this boy's energy directed in a positive and safe way!
