March 12 was a scary day for me! I was busy working on some things for the RS Birthday diner I was in charge of, so I put a movie on for the kids hoping to entertain them for a small amount of time! Well Ryland being the sneaky little boy that he is snuck into the kitchen. He got in the dishwasher and got out a knife, and then got himself an apple. He preceded to try and cut the apple. Before I even knew he had escaped I heard screaming. I ran upstairs and found a little boy bleeding everywhere. I called Ryan and he came and helped me get the kids to the ER. Ryland got 3 stitches in his small little finger. It was sad. I am not a fan of holding down my little boy, all so they can help. He was so good and didn't scream to bad as long as we were talking about what kind of ice cream he could have afterwards.
| This is his poor little finger the next day! |
Aunt Kali was nice enough to take the stiches out for us this last weekend! I am glad the experience is over, it is deffinatly something I don't ever want to relive. Heres hoping he learned that playing with knives realy isn't the safest thing. And hears hoping I can become a better mom so I don't have to relive these situations.

It has NOTHING to your parenting. You are an AMAZING Mother.
yikes leah! poor little guy. you are doing a great job. we went to the ER for stitches twice in the same month. hope it healed well.
It doesn't matter how good of a parent you are or how intently you watch your children. Things like this can happen anytime. I mean you can't take 4 kids with you everytime you use the bathroom, something could happen then. Don't think one second about it! This is just life with kids! Hope he's healing great! :)
