Our Tough Kid

Amanda had some excitement today.Lily was off for a teachers' workday, which meant that she and Noah had to fill up the day. They were arguing/fighting about something in the hall by the kitchen pantry and she pushed him. He fell to the floor and cracked his head open on the corner of the baseboard. After some heavy bleeding Amanda took him to the urgent care. Since the bleeding stopped on its own the doctor recommended against a staple because the scar will be under his hair. There was no need to put him through additional trauma.

It took him a little while to find a comfortable position for sleep, but all's quiet on the monitor. Meanwhile, we chose not to punish Lily because of how badly she already feels about this. When Amanda called me at work to tell me what happened I could hear Noah crying and Lily yelling, "Noah, I'm so sorry!" I think she really is this time. Hopefully this will be a good lesson for her.
