Devin is fine, but we just got home from the ER. He was playing on the window sill in the downstairs window, he likes to jump onto the couch from the sill even though he knows he is not supposed to. I was in the backyard putting sleeping bags in the tent, where we were going to sleep, so he opened the window. I told him to stop climbing on the window sill. Both he & Brooke did it again so I started walking around the house to make them stop. As I was half way to the gate in the front, I heard D start screaming. I knew what happend and sure enough I ran to him and he was screaming on the ground below the window. I was carrying him inside and told him I was frustrated and mad that he did not listen to me. At that point I did not see any blood. Then I realized there was a cut on the back of his head, but it was not bleeding real bad - surprising for a head wound. (he fell about 3.5' on 1/4"- gravel)
We thought it looked a little deep so we took him to ER at Evergreen. They put 2 staples to hold it together. The cut was about 1/4".
Before we got in the car, I was holding Dev and I think he realized I was worried. He looked at me and said "I'm ok daddy." All the way there he was fine and laughing, just like normal, but at one point he said he had a burn on the back of his head. He did not cry at any time in the hospital until the Dr. put staples in...of course.
I cannot stand the feeling I have right now, I am just glad it was not worse. Poor little guy. Please pray he sleeps well and it does not hurt him anymore.
All the other kids are doing well. Grandma & Pa Pa came over to watch them.
