It was another beautiful fall day here this morning so I had the kids go outside and play. I was keeping watch but doing some cleaning. Lanie ran in to me and said, "My foot is hurt!" I look down and sure enough, blood is dripping (running) off her toes… 
…all over my carpet too. Scott was in school so I’m the only one here. 
I pick her up quickly and take her into the kitchen to the sink so I can "access" the gravity of the situation. It’s bad. She has cut her foot and it’s bleeding like crazy, over an inch deep and about an inch long. Right at the "pad" of her foot and up between her 2nd and 3rd toes. So, my mom comes over to hold it together and put pressure on it while I get dressed. I take her to the clinic. They only put in 4 stitches b/c it must heal from the inside out so the stitches just basically hold the skin together on the outside. 
Here’s a picture of her foot….
You can’t tell a whole lot but that gives you an idea. Poor baby. It will take over a week to heal. What a pain!!! She cut it on a mason jar that our son forgot and left outside and then another son dropped and broke and left it there… 
And, he didn’t come tell mom either. Lanie isn’t very happy about being cooped up and not being allowed to run around…see….
Hopefully it will heal well w/o any infection or anything!
