fun in the woods
Well no one has posted in a bit so I thought I would and add another one of my huge pictures. But I do this on purpose this time because I want you to see the gory details of this picture, and the sad expression on little e’s face.
So last weekend we went to Hannah Park campground with some friends and the children were frolicking about as the parents mingled and gossiped. When all of a sudden there was a loud shriek from the woods and I recognized it as Ethan’s shriek. So I ran to rescue him and the poor kid was stuck in a palm plant, wearing cutie shorts of course. Well these palm plants stalks are razor sharp with tiny thorns and Ethan legs got TORN up. Not to mention his little girl friend who was trying to save him ended up rubbing his legs a few times more against the stalks and when he saw his mommy coming he jumped to her and landed against another stalk which then cut his left leg up too. Screaming, tears, and blood permeated the surroundings. It was quite traumatic, especially when some other mommy, trying to help, poured a burning cream all over the cuts trying to stop the pain but moments later only found that it made things A LOT worse. So I frantically drove him to the bathroom and restraining him the whole time, rinsed his wounds. After he settled down he said, “Mommy, you hurt my heart” and began sobbing again. Ethan doesn’t like to be restrained. After some time, lovin’s, and an m&m rice crispy treat he was feeling a lot better. But those cuts man, I couldn’t believe it. Poor kiddo.
