I have been waiting to do these pics for a while. They aren't great pics, but a story that had to be told!

It all happened so fast. It was March 22, 2005. It was raining outside. Hannah was watching cartoons. We were preparing for dinner. You were playing with the fridge magnets. Your dad opened the freezer and a frozen steak fell out and split your head open. How unlikely! You hardly bled, so we weren’t too worried, but I took you over to a neighbors house, who was a pediatric nurse, and she took a look. When she swiped the blood away and I saw the gaping hole beneath, I simply headed to the car. We made the short drive to Primary Children’s quickly, and waited to be seen in the ER. I had to explain to a suspiciously large number of people that indeed you had been struck by frozen meat. At last it was determined that you would need a stitch or staple, and we headed to an exam room. You looked somewhat comedic with your Richard Simmons sweatband on your head to keep the numbing solution from being wiped away. I had to take pictures. You ended up with just one staple and the only tears shed {mine and yours} were when you were forced to hold your head still. You healed quickly and only one week later you were staple free again. You sure are one tough kid. It would be a mere two weeks until your next bloody head wound...but that’s another story.

lasting impressions paper (solid blue)
bazzill cardstock
colored staples
