She’s amazingly beautiful and strong. Even if she has a scar, she will still be perfect.

I’m so glad she did well with the ER and stitches. We’ve had one run in with Dermabond, and my son screamed like a banshee the whole time. So sad.

Good luck getting them out tomorrow :)

Your daughter most definitely does take after your mother. When she was 4 we were having a picnic at a park between Belle Glade and Pahokee, Florida when she tried to jump on the concrete bench attached to the table, missed and hit the table; cut her eyebrow open. Trip to the ER, it took 5 (yes,5) of us to hold that little girl because she thought they were going to put the shot to deaden the spot directly into her eye. She was so hysterical we could not get her quite enough to explain. She had never even cried before when she got a shot. Glad Emma is “more evolved”.

Poor Emma! Poor mom! I remember every detail of the day my son broke his arm – days like that sure make us appreciate the normal, quiet, uneventful everydays, don’t they?

Awwww! Bless her heart! When I was 9 I fell off a tractor I was playing on and cut open my cheek in a little triangle on a blade. At the ER there was a plastic surgeon who sewed me up. There was never a scar and to this day I can never remember if it was my left or right cheek! Hope she is 100% very soon … (((HUGS))) to her and to your sweet Mama’s heart!

Oh she’s such a trooper. Good thing is kids heal quickly and the scar should disappear.

Poor Emma! Traumatic, for sure, but probably more so for Mom and Dad (and Bo and Pappa!)!

And we’ve been there-my youngest son got pushed into the corner of our play table by my oldest and needed nine stitches right in the middle of his right eyebrow. He was just shy of turning 2, and was nowhere near the champ Emma was! (Check my Flickr page, set named “The Accident” for our pics!)

Glad she’s feeling alright today! How are your parents???

She is a trooper. She looks so tiny on the stretcher. I’ve been there (3 times, 2 for stitches, 1 broken arm) so I know what it’s like. I think it’s harder on us than it is on them. I’m sure you’re giving her lots of tlc. PS: After the stitches are removed, make sure you use sunscreen on the stitch area and I used mederma and bio-oil on the area to minimize scarring.

Oh no!!! Oh my gosh – those stitches DO totally make me want to cry! I’m so glad she’s doing well and YAY that she’s such an awesome trooper:)
