Stitches!

Well, we had our first episode of stitches on one of our children today. Bailey was running in the aisle of the sanctuary after church and tripped and fell, hitting her forehead on one of the chair legs. We spent three hours in the ER and I have to say that she was a champ. She cried a lot when they gave her the shot to numb her head, but other than that she laid really still and let them sew her up. She walked away with 5 McDonald's toys and a whole bag of M&M's from the doctor. It's hard to realize how fast your children can get hurt and how out of control you are to stop it. I know that God gave us all grace to get through this afternoon because it was not near as bad as I expected!
