Trauma Mama Drama and Turnip Greens:)

We've had a few days of trauma and recovery. Again. On Monday, Katie and Kristin collided over a 'race to the teepee' they were building. Katie went face first onto the cement and couldn't brace herself. Yeah. Ugly. Picture Katie SCREAMING and Kristin SCREAMING and the mom/Julie/and Mom Jo watching giant blood-clot thing form on Katie's head. It was a scary moment. I started yelling for ice over the ruckus....and Mom Jo ran inside only to bring forth ....a bag of frozen turnip greens. Now, those of you from the south will understand the need for turnip greens in freezer...(I personally think they're disgusting) but they fit the bill in this case. Our poor little Katie with bag of turnip greens on her head soon was evaluated and over the next few hours found to be ok. Her head is gross looking and will be all week. Kristin felt so bad about the whole thing she cried for hours telling us how sorry she was that she had hurt Katie. (this in itself is a big deal for those that know Eloise:)!!) and now....today....things are somewhat back to normal. And yet again... On we go! Sorry. No pics. Too yucky.
