...facial stitches, that is.
It would appear, that in order to become a fledgling Weaver, a prerequisite is to have facial/ head stitches before the age of 4. For some of them, more than once. I'm not mentioning any names here... but the girl type has done it twice.
When Ryan was 3, he fell at the swimming pool in Aylesbury and managed to get himself transported via Ambulance to have his head stitched back together. Very exciting for a small boy... not so much for the mama.
And then, when Emily was 2 - she got clouted with a tennis racquet by big brother, and had stitches just near her eye.
And then - when she was 4, she fell and had stitches just near her eye... again.
And then on Sunday, little Lukey ( not yet 4).. fell and had 5 stitches in his forehead.
So it would appear - that in order to be a Weaver child, some facial scarring is a must ;0)
I am hoping there WILL BE NO MORE!!!! My heart can't take any more of this.
Little Lukey was SUCH a brave little dude having his stitches - he kept the whole ER amused with his constant questioning. Such a cutie-pie.
Please pray for no ugly scars x.
LOL! If I look at the photos of Emily she looks delighted with her injuries.

I bet Ryan will feel pretty bummed that he's the only one without the actual stitches photo ;)
Sorry you had to have another heart attack Mamma!
