Stiches

On Friday we were having a very uneventful/boring day until Emma sliced her finger. She was in a "time out" at the time so I'm not exactly sure what happened, but I assume that she was trying to put the cover back on the night light in her room and the bulb broke. After hearing her screaming Mike found her with the broken bulb sitting on her finger like a thimble. She must have decided to play with it because it cut her pretty good. There was blood everywhere and she was pretty hysterical. She did NOT WANT TO GO TO THE DOCTOR! We hopped in the car and headed to urgent care. 2 hours later she finally got to see the doctor. Luckily the doctor was amazing with Emma. She unfortunately had to be strapped down to the table and that was so traumatic for all of us. Poor girl, she probably will be terrified of the doctor for the rest of her life. Too bad we have to go back in a week to get the stitches taken out. She had to have 3 stitches and has been babying her hand ever since. We have to remind her to stretch her fingers. Poor girl, but luckily her finger is healing well. It ended up being a very eventful night after all. This is what we have to look at everyday. Emma with her band aid and a piece of fruit in her hand. She cannot get enough of our fresh fruit.
