Ouch!!

Wednesday, May 13th, just 2 days after the engine in the Suburban died and left me stranded for 2 hours as I waited for the tow truck, I ended up in the ER with Caden. We had just returned home from having dinner at Chipotle's and had sent the kids to get ready for bed. Caden was in a goofy mood and wouldn't settle down. He fell and hit the corner of the wall cutting his ear open. So we had family prayer and then he and I headed for the hospital at 8:30 pm. I can't say I was thrilled about the unexpected trip. On the up side I had two hours of one-on-one with Caden. He ended up not needing stitches. They used steri strips to close the wound and then used Dermabond glued to hold it in place as it healed. A week and a half later the glue and steri strips are gone and it is healing quite nicely. While we were at the hospital we noticed just how hard he hit the wall. In this last picture, check out the bruise that goes from behind the ear all the way down his neck! It's a good he is so resilient. :)
