As much as I would like this post to be about the yummy cinnamon rolls & cookies that were baked this weekend, instead I will be writing about my lovely visit to the E.R.
Levi and I were so excited for the Y to open today, as it has been closed for a whole week for facility maintenance. We arrived and I fed Levi a snack, changed into my workout clothes, and then we headed to Adventure Zone for some climbing tube fun.
Soon Levi had to use the restroom. We gathered our items together and headed off to the bathroom. Now, what happened next will most likely be one of the most terrifying moments I, as a mom, will live through. My lovely son fell and slid like a baseball player into the door way of the bathroom.
He hit his head HARD & oh my goodness, blood. I couldn't believe it. My poor little man split his head open! About a 1 inch boo-boo in his hairline, which bled badly. He was so upset, I was upset, there was shaking and worries about head trauma.
It was horrible...just horrible and I truly hope I never have to live through another moment like that again. Anyway - the Y folks were very nice and extremely supportive. They called 911 - the fire department showed up and assessed my baby. Daddy showed up and off to the E.R. we went.
Levi was unbelievably brave, only cried when they had to do the shots for the stitching. 4 lovely stitches later he was good as new. Here I am suffering emotional trauma & he is acting like nothing happened! Little boys are resilient.
My wonderful little boy - I am so happy that he is okay, and so very thankful that it was not any worse.
I love you my little big boy!
