Battle wound!


Seth has become Mr. Climber. He is not afraid of anything, which puts mom in a bad spot. One must keep a very close eye on him! Seth received his first real battle wound of life. The day before Thanksgiving we spent our morning in the emergency room, due to Seth's new scaling skills. I had just gave Isaiah a nice bowl of watermelon, when I heard the end of the world cries from Mckayla, who was upstairs. Leaving the two boys alone, not thinking about Seth's new climbing skills, I ran upstairs to assist Mckay. Maybe a minute goes by, and I hear "No Seth", and then a big thud, and then the death cry. I race downstairs, and find Isaiah hugging Seth, and Seth bleeding profusely right above his left eye. Isaiah's version of the story is, "Seth climbed up on top of the counter, and was trying to eat Isaiah's watermelon. Isaiah tries to bat Seth off, and in the process causes Seth to lose his balance, and cause him to fall head first into the stool and floor below". Lucky for us no stitches were needed, SUPER GLUE is what saved the day. Who knew that in our day super glue would be such saving grace. After all this you would think that Seth would learn his lesson, but noooo! As soon as we got home from the emergency, Seth climbed right back up to the counter. Like I said he has no fear!
