Accidents happen. I had to explain this to Caleb earlier today when he dumped Sam out of the stroller face first. Oops. A casual stroll to the library turned into a chaotic and very bloody mess on the way home. Being the cool and calm mother that I am, I most certainly did NOT panic the moment I saw Caleb hit the broken piece of sidewalk jutting up and flip the stroller over. My heart did not skip a beat as I saw Sam's arms fly out and his face bounce off the pavement. Nope. Not me. I was as cool as a cucumber. Well, maybe I wasnt all that calm. Ha ha!
I did drop the library books and rush over, pick my baby up and begin to comfort him. I actually had to comfort Caleb more as he was screaming "I don't want to see the blood! It's all my fault!" while covering his eyes. In the end, there was more blood than actual injury. His wounds will heal and Caleb's heart was comforted.
**On a side note, while typing the above, Caleb and Abbie somehow pushed Sam while playing and he now has an upper swollen bloody lip as well as a lower bloody and swollen lip. Ahhh, the joys of motherhood!
