more wounds

I think Janie is ready to replace Molly Ringwold in a new version of the brat pack; she has just the right expression.

A couple days after taking Ben's stitches out last week, Claire fell and hit her head on the corner of the wall. It was minutes before bedtime. Because Claire's last experience with the doctor was when she had MRSA, she started throwing a fit when she heard she was going to the doctor. So Dan detoured to Walgreens to get her some Dora Bandaids before going to the ER. 2 hours later she came home with three stitches right in the middle of her forehead where the curl should be.

Oh pauvre Claire!! Tell her that her cousin is trying her best to have sympathy pains for her. Little Merry is covered with poison ivy on her arms and face, then yesterday she was running at Parker's school, tripped and put her tooth into her lip. Today she went to get blood taken (for her physical) and the nurse couldn't find her vein so the digging with the needle has left a lovely bruise. I've been dressing her in long sleeves, hat and sunglasses so that DSS and nosy parents won't come knockin.

Love to you all.

What's funny about these videos is how similar our voices sound, Sister. Deep, coffee soaked, and slightly disinterested. Ha.

That didn't sound promising - I'm not sure she got enough stitches to learn her lesson.
