stitches

Annabelle was running down a gravel road, tripped, and a rock punctured her forehead. There was a lot of blood. A lot. We cleaned her up and put a band-aid on it, but it was still bleeding so off we headed to the emergency room.  I guess it just wouldn’t be a Meyer trip without Annabelle getting bumped, bruised, or cut! 
Annabelle was pretty hysterical, but I managed to calm her down and the doctors numbed her forehead. She received two stitches and was a great sport. She received a new pink stuffed turtle from the doctor, a book, candy, and some juice. Even Gwyneth got in on the candy and juice! 
I thought for sure this would ruin our day, but Annabelle bounced right back! She informed me, even though it was just 2 stitches, “they sewed me up like a shirt!”.
