Happy Hump Day!

Maddie got a BIG BOO BOO today...the sliding door on the van was closing and she stuck her hand in because she thought it was opening and guess what? If you guessed that the door CLOSED on her fingers your guessed right! We were in a parking lot, I thought I saw her put her hand in but hoped she would realize the door was closing and pull her hand out, nothing I could do, she was on her side and I was on the driver side, all of the sudden I heard mad screaming, I ran around, scooped her up, got her in the van and her fingers at the first knuckle were instant purple/black. Panic mode hit, oh geez oh geez what do I do?!?! I kissed her fingers, wiggled them around a little bit to try to assess them and see if they were broke, of course she is crying she wants daddy and I'm just trying to get her calmed down enough so we can get home. Of course Maddie is telling me to get home fast and no matter how fast I was going it wasn't fast enough, I just wanted to get home so we could look at her fingers better. When we got home Maddie rushed in the house to show daddy her fingers, by than they were just red and swollen so Daddy gave her kisses and some ice for her fingers. They seem to be fine, I think it was just a bad smash but still scary!

The other day Maddie and I noticed how big the icicles were hanging from the house. Of course I pulled one down for Maddie and she was happy as a lark! She wanted to eat it, play with it (she was blowing on it like a horn) and just enjoy being a kid with it. Fun!



This is my "friday" with being off the next 2 days before I go back to work for the weekend.

TTFN!
