Merrick is insistent on inflicting damage to his face on a weekly basis. It seems every single week we bring him to school on Monday with a new bump, cut or scrape. And every week it's a different story. And every week I feel like the teachers are that much closer calling Child Protective Services!! Fortunately, one of his teachers - Ms. Lea - has 4 boys of her own (bless her). She's told me that each of her boys have been to the ER more than one time for stitches, broken bones, etc. AGGGHHHHHH NOOOOOOOO!! He will cause me to have a heart attack, I'm certain of it.
For your viewing 'pleasure', I give you his latest battle scar. He was running in the street in front of our house, tripped, FORTUNATELY caught himself a little with his hand, however it wasn't enough to prevent his head from grazing against the pavement. He cried for about 2 seconds, but when I scooped him up and ran into the house to assess the damage, then he REALLY cried....because he wanted to be back outside playing with his buddy Noah. I had to quickly clean up the abrasions, slap on some Neosporin and get him back outside!
