Maddie got her first major boo-boo a couple days ago. I can't decide if it was more traumatic for me or her! She and Bella were playing and she fell into a door frame...head-first. It immediately swelled into an egg-shaped lump and had this distinct red line where she made contact. The sound that came out of her literally scared the daylights out of me! Being in the medical field, I don't usually get too upset or panicked but this was different. The lump, her scream....blech. Terrifying. She, of course, was fine once she calmed down. She and Bella resumed their antics and I wiped my tears while we watched her for a few hours before bedtime. I'm sure many more boo-boos are to follow but I certainly hope they are minor and few and far between!! I (we) need time to recover!

Yikes! That's terrible. I hate it when they get hurt and you hear it and hear them, but haven't gotten to inspect the injury yet ... that feeling of "Oh my gosh ... how bad is it going to be?!?!" is awful. Glad she's ok.
