As we were getting ready to leave the primary ice cream party, Bryson was climbing back out of the van and tripped over a bag. He fell out the door, landing on his head in the parking lot. He instantly had a HUGE goose egg which unfortunately was also full of gravel and dirt. Travis scooped him up and hurried him into the bathroom to wash it out. Travis tried to keep him from seeing himself in the mirror, but Bryson wanted to see and turned around to look in the mirror. Then the crying got REALLY LOUD. Through his sobs he said, "Now everyone is going to laugh at me!". We told him no one would laugh, but would probably feel bad for him (and everyone has). He had a few other scrapes and pretty big cut on his hand. We told him he had to have a bath to get everything clean. He was afraid it would hurt (and so were we) so we let him have a "birthday bath" in our new airtub. Once he got in and realized that it didn't sting, he really had fun. He LOVED having the water so high, LOVED the bubbles and LOVED doing silly things with the soap bubbles after he was washed. Here are some pictures of the fun and his huge goose egg.
Looks like a fun bath fixed everything. Whew - crisis averted, birthday saved, and luckily he didn't have a concussion!
