As we were relaxing at the table after dinner last Monday night Sydney stretched back in her chair....resting on two legs...and fell back hitting her head on the granite counter top. She was in a lot of shock, as was I. i wilted at the amount of blood. I am so glad Ben was home. He calmly washed her up and put an ace bandage around her head and whisked her off to the E.R. I practiced deep breathing on the couch. I wanted to go, but someone has to be mom to the other five who at the moment were injury free! She waited a long wait and then got big staples in her head. She was very brave. She was disappointed not to be able to swim, ride her bike or rollerblade for 10 days. She is doing much better and is recovering fine at home in front of her sketch book and pastels.
