Gettin' Stitched

Last night after scouts the boys were playing soccer out on the field. They love playing soccer. My little Ethan loves playing with them to. Coming with me to scouts is one of his favorite things during the week. Last night he got tripped up running for the ball and (murphy's law) fell face first onto the corner of the only sprinkler box in the field. Poor little man... I carry an aid kit in my truck at all times as you know my history with accidents... but he was so sweaty from soccer that we couldn't get any medical tape to hold the wound shut while we rushed him to the hospital. Even duct tape wouldn't stick... Isn't that stuff suppose to stick to everything? Anyways, it was a long 2 hour wait in the ER too. Ethan was tough though and when he was seen by the doc he took the 6 stitches like a warrior and got an ice cream sundae after all was said and done, plus got to skip school for a day... One more battle scar in the books... Sorry little man... I would have taken those stitches for you if I could.
