Lila had a big burn out today at school. It went something like this.....
I just get done from my run (4.5 miles baby) as I'm on my way home I get this phone call from my friend Jen..."Annette just called, she doesn't have her cell phone, and she doesn't have your cell number, but Lila fell and SMASHED up her face"
I don't think I even said good bye. Of course there is some old man in front of me taking his own dam time turning....I really think I touched his bumper a bit. I was speeding the entire 2.5 miles to the school. Mind you the speed limit is 35...um, I'm doing 60. Speeding karma is going to get me.
I can't find a place to park at the school, so I pull into the bus lane, run in, to find Lila sitting on Annette's lap with 4 teachers and the recess teacher giving her crackers, juice, ice packs and LOTS of attention. She is fine. No tears, No blood, lots of love.
She looks at me and says" Mom, why you here so fast" I told her I was there because Auntie Jen said you Smashed your face.....Annette says, "No, I said scratched her face."
All I was thinking the entire time I was driving there was how scared she must be, and how I was going to tell Brandon she was hurt. Um, yeah, she wasn't scared and Brandon still hasn't seen it yet.
Anyway, she's fine and milking it for every ounce of sympathy she can get......I would too.
5 words of wisdom:
Oh poor baby.
Tell her Auntie Carrie has a few scars if she wants to see 'em . . . nevermind.
Carrie
Man have I been there done that a few times over! It is the most horrible feeling wanting to get to your kids side asap! I'm glad she seems to be not too bad mother!
It sounds like she was really enjoying that attention and why the heck did you have to get here so soon! Too cute. I hope she feels better soon.
Keep hanging in there. I know it is hell and there are no "feel good" words, but we are hear to listen.
Ohh-I'm glad it wasn't worse.
Happy healing.
Poor little thing. =(
