Spilled Milk & Stitches

Ok, we're not supposed to cry over spilled milk. But, when it results in stitches it's ok...








Kamrie was hurrying to the kitchen this morning to help Chloe clean up her spilled milk & tripped over Hunter's foot. She hit the doorway & ended up with this.

This was all about 10 minutes before school started. I ended up taking the boys to school, Chloe & Cooper to Angie & Kamrie to the Doctor.

Four stitches later & two Hello Kitty Band-Aids. Kamrie did GREAT at the doctor's. Didn't cry a bit during the entire stitching-process. I was a bit worried about how she'd do, too, because she's very dramatic & can cry huge crocodile tears the instant she feels hurt or sad. Being friends with the Doctor (thanks Doug!) helped keep Kamrie & I calm also. I knew Kamrie would be in good hands either way, with Doctor Doug or Doctor Grow. :)

What I don't quite understand is how Brad misses out on things like this. Angie said I was very calm on the phone telling her what I needed. I told her I had practice calling my friends Sonja & Julie to come to my rescue in Imperial when someone needed stitched up or casted. I'm so thankful for friends like all of you I can count on in a crisis!

Ecclesiastes 4:10
If one falls down,
his friend can help him up.
But pity the man who falls
and has no one to help him up!

You were all so brave. even mommy, who had a lot of organizing to do.
God is so good to give us friends who are doctors and care givers, children who are helpers and the peace to handle life because we know He loves us and is control of all that happens to us. thank you, Lord for all our blessings.

Glad to see Kamrie is okay. I would have came if you would have called. I am glad you have friends there. sb
My kitchen sink is still clogged. Plumber can't come for a week. So now my kitchen is shut down. Oh well.
