Awana Mishap

Sometimes when it rains it pours...

Wednesday evening while at dinner I got a call from the Awana leader that Lillian had gotten hurt. She was bandaged up, brought home and we immediately left for the immediate care.

Waiting at the Immediate Care with an Ice pack
 First look at the cut and the explanation for what happened
Apparently they were playing at game time. Lillian was crawling on the floor (per the game) whenever another child tripped over her causing Lillian to smash her head into the ground. The force of impact broke her glasses which then stabbed her in the forehead.
Yes- her injury was caused from her own head and own glasses :)
Oh the talents of my Lilli-bird
 Although the cut was fairly deep it was not wide (deep puncture wood from the glasses) it was opted to use Dermabond liquid stitch to close the wound.
She was very glad to not have to get a shot or to have stitches.
 Waiting for the glue to die and smiling for the promised lollipop (she picked red)
 Bandaged up and reading to go home- in and out in less then an hour
 And the next day, time to shop for new glasses which were put on rush order and arrived less then week later :)
The storms may come but the blessings that follow are never far behind.

Here's to a less eventful Awana this week.
