Ouch!

Saturday night, Kati came in to me, and begged me to ride her cousins 4 wheeler. I initially said no, but she wanted to so bad, and she was asking so cute, so I told her she had to wear a helmet and shoes. About ten minutes later her aunt comes in and says "Kati just fell, I don't know how bad it is." I go out there and her uncle is holding her. Blood all over her, and him. So, we start wiping her down looking for the injury. It ended up she had a gash on her forehead. It was pretty deep, so we took her to the ER. She was freaking out about having stitches, but when it came down to it, she did great! She dozed off, while the doctor put 5 stitches down the middle of her forehead. After, she got to call her dad and tell him all about it. She said "Dad, I got 5 stitches, and 6 SUCKERS!" She was so excited about those suckers. And then she says to me, "Mom, I was so brave to go so fast, huh." and started talking about what she would do differently next time. Needless to say, there are no more 4 wheelers in her near future. I said "Let's wait until you can ride your bike without training wheels before we try again." She said "Okay Mom. Good idea."

I'm glad that all she needed was stitches and nothing more serious happened. Isn't it funny that she was proud of how fast she went. Kids...they make me laugh.
