Another Trip to the ER

On Wednesday, August 19, after church, we went to see my sister Rachel's new house and the progress they had made on getting it cleaned up. We hadn't been there long, before Emily came running through the corner of the living room and tripped on the change in elevation from one room to the other (from removing the carpet). She hit her face on the step and I was afraid she had hit her eye. It was actually on her cheek bone, but it was gushing blood. We left Sarah and William there and took Emily and Andrew (who had just started eating when this happened) to the ER. We got there at 8:30 pm and left at 11:00! She got 5 stitches (1 inside and 4 outside). The doctor said it was through all the layers of skin and involved the first layer of muscle, too.

After the stitches came out.
