A Bad Combination





You know Sam. He is a child who is full of curiosity...and mischief. When you combine him with oh lets say this..........



Well you get the picture.


I have been spending some time cleaning the house in preparation for our vacation so things are off the top of the fridge, the junk drawers are cleaned out everything is getting organized. The kids, having helped out are taking a break in front of the TV. I stopped to sit for a few minutes when I hear a panicked cry. "Um, MOM? He is not crying but he is not okay.
I went to find him and there he stands with blood dripping down his hand. At this point I am trying not to panic, I wrapped his finger tightly in a towel and asked "Sam what happened" I knew something was up when he just looked at me. "Well I was spinning my bike tire and I stopped it with my hand and it cut me!"


REALLY!


I took care of him and went out to the scene and found an open box cutter.
He ended up getting 3 stitches because he cut to the bone.
He knew he was going to get into trouble for taking the box cutter outside and he was determined NOT to cry.

I will have to have a talk with him. He should have said it was a razor scooter. Much more convincing.... I will bet he learned some lessons though!!

I guess it wouldn't be summer without an injury--hopefully there won't be anymore!
