Allie had a bit of a run in with the stall in the girl's bathroom at school. The school called me to tell me that she had been cut, but they gave her some bandaids and sent her on her way. I figured it must not be serious and went on with my day. When she got home, she showed me the wound and I saw that it was really deep and still bleeding pretty bad, so I took her to our pediatrician. She was pretty nervous, but he put her right at ease and did a great job stitching her up. He cracked us both up when he came in saying that he had just watched some youtube videos and he was fairly confident that he could stitch her up. He told her she was his first patient needing stitches, but then, later when he talked about stitching a kid up the day before, she caught him in his lie. She was laughing the whole time rather than letting her fears get in the way.
Believe it or not, it's our first round of stitches in the family. Way to go Allie!
