i didn't know what to blog about today until...

this happened...colin & recess & an outdoor basketball court & a large rock all came together at the same time...one brave boy...one hospital visit...two blue stitches...three dollars in vending machine treats...four injections of lidocaine...five little fingers squeezing my hand tightly...six minutes in the waiting room (can you believe it?)...seven minutes for mom to get from home to the school...eight pictures for the scrapbook taken...nine well-wisher phone calls...ten dollar bribe paid to colin for being so brave (i needed him to lay still & money talks)...go.live.play & don't fall on concrete courts.
