Well, for Todd at least! He is such a rough and tough boy, I am truly surprised this is the first time for stitches. He was at school and was in line waiting to go somewhere, and he tripped and hit something (he knows, I know he does, he just isn't sharing!). I was in the manager's office downloading pictures from the Christmas Program when I heard her say, "His mom is in here, we will be right there." I turned, looking for another parent, and sure enough, I was alone! She said Todd had cut his chin.
We go in there, and sure enough, a pretty good split in the chin. We go to have it looked at by a nurse to see if it needed stitches and yes, he needed to have it looked at by a doctor. Todd was more concerned about missing his party than what was going on with his chin! Daddy took him to the doctor and would only say, "Wow, I got weak in the knees." I knew I should have gone with him but I truly had too much work to get done (I was on hold with the dr's office and working on the deposits so I could leave immediately if needed) and all dad's need to experience those things, right?
They both faired ok, Todd came back with a slushy for being so brave and showed off his battle damage to all his friends! He is doing really good but insists he has to sleep with brother because he is afraid of the monsters the doctor stitched in his chin!
