What a day! I had the kids this morning and then we met up with H for lunch and to switch the kids. H was going to take S5 and S3 to a birthday party at his neighbors house while I took S1 back to my house for a nap.
Two minutes after we get home I get a call from H who tells me that S3 fell off his bike and he thinks he needs to go to the hospital. I knew that is was serious because h is the king of "just shake it off you are fine". I threw S1 in the car and rushed over. My heart dropped when I saw S3. S3 had a huge bump on his forehead despite the fact he was wearing a helmet. We left the other boys with my MIL and headed to the ER. They observed S3 for three hours and let us go. S3 was thrilled because they gave him three popsicles. He was a great little patient.
H has S5 and S3 at his place for the night. He was supposed to take S1 too but we decided I would take him so H could give all his attention to S3. It makes me sad that I won't be there tonight if S3 is upset but I know he is in good hands.
We worked as a good co-parenting team today. Hopefully tomorrow will be more of a low key day.
