Color

This past Sunday, after a OSC function, I was welcomed home with a screaming Kennedy and a mouth full of blood - YIKES! I definitely have a emotional, intense, sometimes sorta dramatic side to me; however, I knew SUPER MOM had to step in and be the strong calm one (or at least look like I was)! Miss K had a bit of a mishap literally minutes before I got home. Her creative mind decided to take our play shopping cart and turn it upside down and convert it into a stool. She lost her balance and fell backwards onto our wood floor. Her tooth made a 1 inch cut along her top lip and it was an awful site. I got the bleeding under control but knew that this size cut was worth going to the ER for. We dropped Landon off at our neighbors and headed to the hospital. Miss K was as calm as could be and actually welcomed the fact we were on our way to see the doctor. This was exactly what I needed in the moment...her calmness put such peace into a not so peaceful situation. She was my trooper through it all and came out with not one stitch! As we waited in the oh so fabulous ER waiting room, we decided some camera love was in order!

Your smile...

My smile...

Your eyes...

My eyes...

Your spunk colors my world!!!

Poor sweet Kennedy! What troopers you both are. Way to GO Super Mom, I'm impressed! And, in spite of the "fat lip", she looks absolutely beautiful in that last picture! Y'all keep hanging in there! (Look, I actually managed to use one period, my exclamation mark sickness is improving!!!!!)

Hey Miss K and Super Mom,
First trip to the ER, how exciting is that?!!!!!
I really enjoyed your camera fun pictures.
I think of a Bible verse, "Everything works together for good for those who love the Lord and are called according to His purpose".
Because you love Jesus and you not having to get stitches, was the GOOD. And I believe your purpose is MAKING OUR DAY!
Love You,
Granny Smith
