Well its not even lunch time and Ive spent the entire morning at Urgent care with the family! The boys were outside this am watching all the hot air balloons.. Its first day of balloon fiesta today! well.. I have no clue what comes over a boy.. BUT... the tossing of bricks begins.. only to end with one landing on Josh's big toe.. which cuts the top open.. and turns the bottom INSTANTLY BLACK! The cut.. no sweat.. the blood.. no prob... The instant black had me scared.. along with the fact.. he can no longer move it.. after meds.. xrays.. exams... and of course the beloved bandage and SUCKER.. we are home.. no brakes or fractures.. AMAZING... alittle antibiotic ointment and a loose dressing.. why do days have to start off like this???????????????????????/ LOL oh well. its been almost a year since we had been to urgent care.. we needed to see it new and remodeled neway!

Ouch Mindi! Glad things worked out okay for him.

Again, I'm starting to get the news second hand. I didn't see the original, but I caught it on Tabitha's reply.

awe mindi - the joys of motherhood, least you can add humour to the situation

perhaps thats because i noticed when i replied to mindis that she has it sent in html --- maybe sometimes it jsut wants to read html and sometimes not

Sorry to hear about your bad morning, hope the toe feels better soon. Could have been worse, and lasted all day like mine, which, incidently, was also spent in ER, or rather bouncing back and forth between ER and lab. Yick.

My mother told me there'd be days like this.

Glad to hear Josh is OK. I don't know why boys need to throw rocks, but it's part of their DNA.

silly ole boys!!! next time make sure those bricks are tied to the balloons rising!!!!!!!! lol. maybe they didn't believe in the saying what goes up must come down. well it could of been worse and i'm glad for all it wasn't. lavish on the tlc and this incident will make some great page material.

The boys were outside this am watching all = the hot air balloons.. Its first day of balloon fiesta today! well.. I = have no clue what comes over a boy.. BUT... the tossing of bricks = begins.. only to end with one landing on Josh's big toe
