What Scoutie did

So how did Scout react to her daddy going away?
By falling down our garden stairs.
My first aid training went out the window.
Blood. argh!
More blood. argh!
Tears....from both of us!!!
I became the proverbial hysterical mom.
I needed my neighbour, the lovely Sue, to tell me what to do.
So off the A&E we went.
We waited......and waited.....and waited
nevermind Scout has blood gushing from her forehead.
We waited.
She slept...I know! never let a head injured child sleep! But it seemed right at the time.
We got called through.
Scout was fine whilst they cleaned and swabbed and glued and steri-stripped.
I felt nauseous, and cried profusely.
Needless to say she is absolutely fine.
Today the sky is blue, it is mild and the sun is shining - spring is coming! My first daffodil has bloomed!!! Gorgeous!!!

My Joy:

Who needs Boden when one can sew one's child a dress? Okay so I am so lame at reading patterns - never done it before, don't know the terminology.
But I think the dress turned out okay and Mouse thinks she looks pretty!
As Gorden Ramsey would say:
DONE!
