August 25, 2008 STITCHES



Hello Everyone,
I'm very surprised that Bransen made to 4 years old without stitches. Yes, he's had a concussion and many other things but never stitches.
Beau has managed to stay in one piece for 8 years. Our winning streak has come to an end. (Usually it's Tobias getting stitches...at least 10 sets.)
Bransen was riding his bike down our neighbors driveway, when he hit a rock and flew off his bike landing head first into a very pointy rock. Leaving a deep but little cut in his head. My neighbor boy came running into the house, "Jackie, Jackie....Bransen's bleeding really bad from his head." I thought, Oh great as I calmly grabbed a towel from the kitchen. Yes, I've learned how to stay calm. The neighbor boy was right, blood everywhere! I said,"Yep, we're going to need stitches, off to the hospital we go."
Beau was having a harder time than Bransen was, so I left him with my neighbor. Beau would have freaked out at the hospital!
At the hospital...after a long wait and some numbing cream, he was ready. Those nurses at the hospital are very smart, they made him a Batman cape out of a pillow case. They stuck his arms down in it, behind him. He cried a little bit when they gave him the numbing shot, after that he was just fine. What a brave little Batman. We came home, and off he ran to show off his new battle wound to all of his friends. He's so full of it!
