A Staple?! Ouch!

The boys received racer scooters for Christmas from Santa. Ben got pink and Will got green per their wish lists. Because it was 20 degrees and snowing outside, we let the boys ride inside. At first they were slow and barely moving so it seemed like a good idea. Plus how unfair is it to get a gift and ask them not to use it?! On Thursday, December 27th, (after only having the scooters a couple days) Will was really getting good! Maybe too good... he started going faster. He started turning corners. Unfortunately, he started to turn the corner a little too sharp in the kitchen and his head hit the corner of the wall perfectly on the right side of his head. His head started to bleed horribly.... There was no doubt that we would be going to the ER. Lucky for me, Billy had just gotten home from work. By the time we got Will's shoes on he wasn't crying. In fact he was just excited to get to ride in dad's car. There is only one car seat in dad's car, so it's a big deal.

An hour later, they came home. Will was completely fine the whole time. They ended up putting a staple in his head since it was in the middle of his hair. He never cried or winced. This might be a good time to mention Will has already had his head put back together once before. Yes, he is 3... we are averaging every other year at this point!

Staple!

Two seconds after he got home, Will gave me this confident thumbs up!
