Maddie's First ER Visit

I got the dreaded call from Maddie's school nurse, Maddie was hurt on the playground and needed to go to the hospital. Yikes! Poor girl was playing at recess and fell on the stairs. She didn't cry too much, but when the blood started to take over her face and shirt that's when the panic set in. She's was all cleaned up when I came to get her and we headed to the Children's ER. Four long long long hours later Maddie's head wound was cleaned up and glued shut. She was bored and annoyed more than anything with how long it took. She kept saying, "I sucked it in!" "You mean sucked it up?" I said. "No, I say suck it in." She's awesome.
