It has hit me...I really am a parent. I have had the honor of lugging my two year old to the emergency room for 5 stitches the day before Halloween. The saddest part was that we were all in the kitchen when he fell off a chair. Kirk was carving a pumpkin...I was doing dishes, my mother in law was sitting at the table across from Daniel. My brother in law, Vance was helping Kirk....Yes...we were all there...and he still fell and went "boom"!
Made me sad to see my two year old in pain....made me want to take the ouchy for him...made me want to kick some mommy butt when they put him on a board and tied him down to stitch him up. As Garcia would say, "Lazar, You are a NINJA!" :)~
I know this is probably one of many trips where my son will hurt himself. I put things in perspective though- My children are healthy, happy, and I thank G_d everyday for this!
I am blessed and lucky! Life is good to say the least!

ReplyDeleteI'm a little late in responding, but like Michelle said, life happens. Also, I don't have any kiddos, but I can relate in terms of my little doggie. When he gets hurt, I feel like I did something wrong.
