First Trip to E.R.

We had to do it. We had to make our first trip to the Emergency Room last night. Actually, with three kids, it wasn't a question of "if", but "when". Madalyn had the honor of being our first child to do so. She had the misfortune of riding her bike into a parked car (which, I hear, is not all that uncommon). Luckily, she was wearing her bike helmet and her head was fine. Unluckily, it was her knee that took the brunt of the crash. With a wound deemed "too big for stitches", she is now happily resting at home. All in all, the trip wasn't too bad and Madalyn was very brave- though she still hasn't actually looked at her wound, and I can't say that I blame her!
