Just had to share...
Guess where we just were. THE ER. Guess why. Because Gretchen did a face plant into a speaker box. But 3 hours, 4 stitches in her forehead, and ONE HUGE BANDAID later, we're all recovered. (It was totally gruesome. Her forehead was cut all the way to the bone. I almost threw up. Colby almost fainted. The Nurse Practitioner kept asking him if he was OK. He was Edward-White, but without the sparkles.) Gretchen was a total trooper. She was thrilled about the huge bandaide. She'll have a scar (sniff!), but nothing can keep The Gretch down. She'll just look even tougher now.
The end.

Apryl! I'm sorry! Was that your first stitches experience? It gets easier...my Nathan did that once, too: cut all the way to the skull. The great thing about scars, though, is that they always have a story to tell! ;) Hope she recuperates well. And, here's a hint from me, whose kids get stitches more often than dogs get fleas: if you can find some Miracel, it works like magic on new scars!
I am so sorry. I hope that you all recover. Poor little Gretchen! It sounds like she was a trooper, though. I can't believe how tough kids are!
Oh dear Apryl! That is awful. I am glad that you are all doing well now. The Gretch is one tuff cookie.
Laughing a little at Colby having to get asked if he was okay. Miya split her ear in two when she was 1 1/2 and kept pulling on the bottom half of the ear. I had to put a band-aid on and stick it to her head because it was nasty and I thought i might throw-up. Totally brave! So tell more about the move. Are you staying in Reno?
