We have a little Klingon girl

[underpants]

So Friday night "Momma" goes upstairs to fix dinner (Chinese take out) and I turn around to put another log on the fire when we hear a THUD!

I turn around and see Josie face down by the coffe table with her toys on it. Momma comes rushing hysterically down the stairs as I grab Josie who is beet red and about to let out a cry the whole neighborhood can hear. She is bleeding from the nose and a little bit from the mouth. I immediately begin barking out "Calm down! Call the Doctor!" Doctor is off for the weekend so we get the oncall system. We decide to take Josie to the Emergency Room.

We only spent a total of 2 hours in the ER. They took us into triage right away. No broken bone, no broke cartilege, no head injury (a 6 foot fall onto a surface is usually needed for that :shrug: ) everything is just fine.

BUT the bridge of her nose was swollen (attempts at ice were denied) and very broad. She has many similarities to the Klingon type.

She is okay.

WHeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeWWW!

5. Glad she's ok

I think it happens to most kids at some point or another. Thankfully their heads are tougher than we think. Glad your lil Klingon is ok.

6. We got rid of our coffee table when the youngins were little.

Saved a lot of wear and tear on our nerves and their heads. Ok, and my toes. :D
