Stitches!

So.... I have been the proud mother of boys for almost 12 years now.  Boys and only boys.  And I don't have meager, mild, meek boys either.  Is there such a thing?  I have rough and tumble, wrestling, sports-loving boys.  I have actually been surprised at the minor degree of injuries they've managed to sustain over the years.  We've never had a broken bone (well, except for a pinky once... that hardly counts) or any stitches.  Until this month.  This month was actually our first episode of stitches.  Eric tripped and hit his chin on the corner of an open entertainment center door.  We tried to go to the InstaCare, but of course they had closed 5 minutes before we arrived.  So we went to the ER at McKay Dee.  Our doc was super nice and fixed Eric up quickly!  He complimented Eric that he had been stitching kids up all day, and he was the first kid that wasn't crying.  And he's only 5!  Eric was ultra tough, and of course earned a toy of his choosing after he was so brave.
