noodle nunchucks

well i had just sat down at my last cake decorating class for the level one group when my phone rang. 

we had made Chinese for dinner that night, and used chopsticks while eating. 

i had finished dinner and left.

garran calls me and says, "hey you might need to come back home.". 

i asked what was the matter. 

garran said he was not sure what happened. he said kael was sitting in the chair and the next thing he knew he was crying and saying that his face hurt. 

he had some how managed to "noodle nun chuck" (that is what our kids call chop sticks, don't ask, I don't know why) but anyways, he had somehow managed to "nun chuck" himself in the face.

so i left class early and took Kael to the ER for him to have his cheek looked at. it was not a very long cut. however it was deep and in a bad place. Garran and I both thought that because of the location it would need stitches to heal and not constantly keep opening.

we were right. 

3 big stitches.

i told Kael afterwards that they had to sew him up to keep all his handsome-ness inside. he thought that was funny. he was really brave till they stuck that needle right in his cut. i have to admit that this was the first time i witnessed someone getting stitches. usually garran deals with this stuff. however he had a ton of grading to do, so i went. i tried to not think about how painful it was to have that needle stuck in your cut, but i think i may have tensed up just as much as poor kael did when that needle went in. 

oh well. he is doing well, and those stinky stitches will be out next week!
