The Great Spill

Yesterday Alynna took a spill from grass onto the brick walkway. The poor thing was dripping with blood, there was a raspberry on her upper lip, the skin attaching the lip to the gum was swollen, and she had punctured the roof of her mouth with her bottom teeth! After crying for fifteen minutes straight she conked out for a good snooze. Isn't it pathetic? I didn't understand "seeing my heart walk around" until I had kids.
