Sunday afternoon, we went with some friends to a beergarden in town that celebrated its 25th anniversary. The girls had fun playing at the playground there and running around with their friends while we adults enjoyed cool drinks and conversation, until a nice gentleman brought a crying Violet back to our table. Obviously, she had fallen backwards off the swing and hit the ground with her head. Quickly, we collected Lily, who went home with our friends and we took Violet to the ER.
There, we waited while TWO adults skipped the line ahead of us.
At the same time, two totally drunk teenagers were lying on the emergency vehicle driveway and were picked up by two police cars later.
Calvin used the chance and the audience to rip the hugest fart you could possibly imagine out of such a small person (or any person at all). I think most people in the waiting room turned their heads, but for some reason I was the only one giggling. Especially since his daddy went to change THAT diaper (which turned out not nearly as bad as it sounded).
After I complained to the nurse there that people keep skipping ahead of us, they immediately took our information, and not too much later, Violet was called in to be seen by the doctor. Fortunately, she did not have a concussion, just a mild whiplash and a bump on her head. I think we really need to get a bubble-wrap suit for our Sweetie :-)
Poor Violet, I am so glad that she is doing okay.
ReplyDeleteWe are, too! It was definitely scary!! Thanks so much for your concern, Jen!!
DeletePoor Violet! Glad she is not concussed. Hope she's feeling better.
ReplyDeleteMeanwhile, way to go Calvin for diffusing the situation with his fart! Well played.
We are so glad as well. She stayed home from kindergarten on Monday to rest, but was up and running again today! The fart was priceless :-) I wonder that people managed to just ignore it.. :-)
DeletePoor Violet! Glad there was no serious damage.
ReplyDeleteWe are, too, Jenni! Fortunately, she's back to her happy self!
DeleteI am glad she did not have a concussion. It is not fun at all, I can tell you!
ReplyDeleteI bet it's not fun! She must have a skull made of steel concrete, with all these accidents she's had so far :-)
DeleteSeriously glad she was ok, but totally made me smile with Calvin farting, but still hoping she is doing ok now ;)
ReplyDeleteViolet is doing well; we're all so glad about it. But Calvin farting was indeed priceless. Thankfully, I didn't have to change that diaper :-)
DeleteWe just had our own first brush with the ER. So scary! That is awful you had to wait so long!
ReplyDeleteThe incredible thing was that grown people just skipped the line ahead of a 4-year old girl, totally shameless.. I hope everyone's fine in your family! What happened?
