CCK Thanksgiving Festivities

Caroline's Thanksgiving Feast:

And Wells in the Thanksgiving Program:

I love this CCK tradition:  Two little Indians hunt in the forest; two little Pilgrims fish in the ocean on Thanksgiving day...

The Lord is mine and I am His. His banner over me is love ❤

We were so proud of our little pilgrim.

Stitches

Sweet Wells had a spill on Monday. The details are a little fuzzy. I was inside and can't attest - but a friend said Wells was hanging from the rafters of the playhouse (a la monkey bars style) and fell and hit his head on the table.  Clearly not W's version of the story but details not important at this point...

All I know is that I am thankful. Beyond thankful for several things. 1) his friend came and immediately told me W hit his head and was covered in blood 2) I saw it and right away knew it was fixable - but likely required stitches 3) Matt was home working and could help me 4) I raced over to Clt Peds and his dr was still there and agreed to see us after hours and do the stitches in his office. 

All things considered, a very lucky series of events. 

My poor little guy was so brave. 

Mom almost fainted but made it through. 

One well deserved happy meal. 

Stitches come out Sun. All mom can take. Please let's stay accident-free for a while!!
