First stitches

First stitches

Mo cut his forehead, above his left eye blow by hitting on a table end. It was a quite deep cut, though orthopedic surgeon, who was luckily at the clinic when we took him, stitched him up double: inside and the skin surface. He cried a lot off course when was given the local anesthetic injection, then calmed down at the later part of the treatment. I didn't freak out when the school called me, I just thought this moment has came. Given his dad's gene, we'd have been fortunate not having any major injuries until this one.

So, after he was nicely stitched and cleaned up, he was happily playing with an ambulance toy car from the clinic.
