Our First "Almost" Emergency Room Visit

On July 31st, our family had our first minor emergency.  Ryan was racing Brock in the backyard to a pile of bricks and fell onto the edge of one of the bricks, busting right below his knee wide open.  Luckily our pediatrician is open on Saturday mornings.  I took him in and because it was a jagged cut, they couldn't stitch it up, but instead put strips of tape on it (like butterfly stitches).
Six days later, we took the tape off and this is what was left.  It doesn't look near as bad as it did when it first happened, which is good, I guess!  The doctor said that he'll have a scar...but what boy doesn't have a scar somewhere?!?!  That's part of being a boy, right?
