A Trip to Urgent Care

After our playdate,  I took my three boys to Urgent Care to get a cut on Griffin's chin checked out. He sliced it while playing and it looked pretty deep, so I wanted a doctor to check it out/see if he needed stitches.  As we hopped out of the car into the parking lot of the Urgent Care office, Miles said, "mom, I just said a prayer to God." I asked him what he prayed for. He said, "I prayed that if Griffin needs to get stitches, that God help him be brave." Isn't that sweet?! Love that he prayed for strength for Griffin verses for him not to need stitches. Felt like he really got it.

When we got into our room, Griffin chilled out on the chair/bed and Miles and Noah shared a chair right next to him. I couldn't get over how good/relaxed they all were (maybe those hours of jumping with their friends wore them out? :).

The doctor came in, looked at Griffin's chin and then went into a long explanation about how we could get away with using liquid glue to patch it up Griff's cut instead of stitches.  While he was talking Miles very politely interrupted and said, "excuse me, doctor. would you say that you have 'some good news and some bad news'?" hahahahaha...it was hilarious.


After the liquid glue was applied, the nurse put a band-aid on Griffin. She didn't have any character band-aids, so she drew smiley faces all over a regular one. A super sweet gesture I thought. They took great care of us and Griffin didn't cry once.  A huge success for our first case of almost stitches.  :)
