Yesterday the kids were goofing around and Abigail was sitting on my lap while Jacob was throwing a blanket over us. He threw the blanket to high and it hit a picture of Jesus from off a shelf that was above us and the picture came crashing down onto Abby's head. I rushed her to the bathroom and saw the large gash on top of her head. I yelled at Zach that we needed to take her to the ER and off we went. When we got there they put a numbing solution on the gash so that when they stiched her up she wouldn't feel it. She was such a tough girl. She only cried for a few minutes and that was right after it had happened. She didn't even feel them pulling the tape out of her hair and if you know Abby she cries whenever you touch her hair with a hairbrush. She received 8 stiches and has to have them for 1 week. Jacob felt so bad he cried all the way to the hospital. Abigail told Jacob this morning," Jacob, it's ok. It was an accident." She knew that her brother felt bad for what happened and she wanted to let him know that she was ok. Today, Abby was fine, it was as if nothing had happened. What a trooper!!!

*OUCH* Poor Abby! I hope the ER and my kids never meet!!!
Doesn't sound fun, glad all is good and forgiven. At least it was in her hair and you can't see it! Take care!
Ouch! Good thing kids are resilient! We just had our very first ER trip-for Halle, she cut her upper lip and lip and had to have a plastic surgeon put her back together again! Jared says "don't mess with the moneymaker!"-the face!
