Little Gabey was trying to get down off the rocking chair and fell and split his head open. Jared was watching him and said that he cried pretty hard and then never made a peep all the way to the Dr. office. He is one tough little boy. He had to get 5 stitches and when they did the procedure they wrapped his arms in a sheet and put a sterile thing over the cut which made it so he was restrained and blind. (I tried lifting up the sterile thing so he could at least see and the Dr. said, that is sterile don't touch) He screamed and cried, wouldn't you?
We week to church the next day and I put a bandaid on it and we got in the car to go to church and I looked back and he had taken the bandaid off and Conner said, "No mom I took it off." (aren't kids so helpful) So there was a little boy about 2 1/2 yrs old sitting behind us and I saw him really getting a good look at his stitches and I heard him ask his mom what happened and she told him and he said, no sure mom that's a smashed bug on his head. LOL
I told Conner that we needed to sign him up for Swimming lessons. He said he didn't want to. I told him that he needed to not be afraid of the water and they would help him to learn how. Well he thought about it for a few seconds and said, "Mom I know how to not be afraid of the water, just stay out of the water. So I told him I would make a deal with him if he went two days and didn't like it then I wouldn't make him go back. He liked that deal and said, "Mom that's a great deal. Well he has done pretty well, he is still hesitate but doesn't stay on the side of the pool like Grandma Bev did for 5 years. (ha! ha! sorry I couldn't resist)
