My son! :-(

My son just learned how to ride a bike without Training Wheels, and he made the mistake of doing it without a helmet. Sad! This is what happened. Actually, this was the next day. Unfortunately he couldn't smile any bigger than this because his lip was so swollen, but it was pretty traumatizing to see. I just remember him coming in and his face had blood all over it, and his mouth was drooling blood. I was SO scared! Not to mention I get queasy at the sight of blood. It was REALLY hard to be a good mom and be there to clean him up and help him feel comforted all while my hands were shaking and I'm about to burst into tears myself.

This picture was taken the next day when we were finally able to get him into the bathtub and clean up any excess blood. All you see here is just the scabs of what was leftover.
