Sunday

 What started out as a perfectly pleasant Sunday ended in some trauma and tears.  We went to church as usual, stayed late afterwards (sadly as usual too) and then brought home Mags and Joseph with us while Han went to hang out with Stephanie and Katie at the McCombs. 
The girls had a little picnic, the boys played.  It was a tad bit on the wild side but everyone had fun and nothing got broken.

Then in the evening we had an adult fireside.  We got there early to set up the youth classes.  The YW were providing childcare and I had activities and snacks and had them broken up into age groups so it took a little setting up.

The fireside had just barely started (and I was looking forward to hearing it, it was on receiving personal revelation) when Hannah came in and told me Lu was bleeding and needed stitches.  I went out to check and she was in a classroom crying and being bandaged up.  There were a couple of Brethren from the other ward, one of whom was a fire fighter, right there and they  helped her and bandaged her up.  He told us it was a deep deep cut and he was worried it might have gotten to the tendon so not to let her walk on it and to go right to the E.R.
We went. 
She was very sad and scared.  She ended up being wrapped up like a burrito and having R and I and a nurse laying on her while the nurse practitioner sewed her up.  It was a screaming trauma.  She was brave...in a she stayed conscious the whole time kind of way.

 She got 7 stitches and will have a nice little scar to show for it :(  When we got home E and H were waiting, Laura brought them home and stayed with them and they were very worried about her.

Poor Lu.  Not a fun way to end the weekend.

The injury happened while playing red light green light.  Her leg got under the folding won-door and got sliced open when she ran.  Ouch!!
