Noah and I went with Papa to visit my Granny this weekend. Noah is a firecracker on the floor. He moves so fast and nothing gets in his way. Before we knew it he was in the face of Moses, my parents sweet 11 year old mutt. Moses has cancer and has grown grumpy. He didn't like having Noah in his face and in a flash Noah had two scratches. It was a complete accident and a fast one. Good thing for Doctor Papa. He cleaned out the scratches but wanted to be certain it didn't need stiches. So we cut our visit short and returned to Birmingham and spent the next six hours in the Emergency Room of Children's Hospital. Noah was a trooper and a brave boy. He did well and ended up not needing stiches just steri strips. In order to ensure they stay on he is staying out of daycare for the week and is being cared for by Mimi and Papa in Birmingham. It has been a tough week being away from Noah and not being able to care for his boo boos. But he is doing well and healing fast. I am praying for Noah to be scar free!! I knew when they told me we were having a boy that the ER would become familiar with sports, bikes, climbing and all kinds of boy stunts. And being there put life into perspective. What is a tiny scar compared to terminal cancer?
