Another first behind us

The Bragaw family had its first trip to the ER on Friday. As we heard it, Graham was singing and dancing during circle time at daycare when he fell and hit his head on a windowsill. It left a small gash above his left eye. Along with a bit of bleeding came a lot of crying. However, once I saw him (Nathan picked him up from daycare and swung by work to get me.), he was acting like nothing was new. The ER was just another adventure in his young, little life.

All of this comes to no surprise to mom and dad. The boy is top-heavy and has been known to lead with his head. It is his own little battering ram (Trust me, he's barrelled toward me with that thing more than once. If you ever find yourself in that position - with all seriousness - I suggest that you brace yourself.) All in all, the whole event was a minor speed bump. We all handled it pretty well. The worst part for him was being restrained in the Papoose. The most challenging part for us was trying to keep him occupied and happy with no walls (Eventually we got a room with walls.) and no diaper bag full of tricks. However, it all ended on a good note as Graham got his first HUGE red, white, and blue rocket popsicle. Now I know he'll remember the ER fondly.

On a side note... I see this incident as the opening segment to the THS: Graham Bragaw - Boy Band Legend.
