Aaarghhh! I'm a pirate!


Yoho, yoho! A pirates life for me. That's what Georgi look like, right now. She has 3 lovely stitches above her right eyebrow, and a bunch of scrapes on her face. For a mom with three girls, the trip to the ER was traumatic. I don't like needles poking my kids. It's okay if they poke OTHER people's kids, but mom starts crying if the needle has to poke her own.

The poor nurses were afraid I might faint or something, but I kept reassuring them that I didn't get squeamish. I just get teary eyed and sniffly. Poor Georgi was a brave little soul. She was quiet almost the entire time and only cried when they poke her a bunch of times to numb her skin. She was perfectly still while they stitched her up. So, the ER experience was much better than I expected.

Thank you for your prayers last night for a very distressed mamma! I have officially been christened into the motherhood of the Nights E.R.!
