Massey's accident- very gruesome picture



Warning! the following picture is very gruesome

This would be Massey's thumb after cutting it with a shard of glass he found somewhere on our kitchen floor. It happened right after we had just sat down to have dinner a few weeks ago. We have no idea how it happened but it almost broke our hearts to see his sad little face for what seemed like an eternity, especially on the way to the urgent care. He got 7 stitches and was so brave and good to the nurses even though he was in so much pain for a little while.
It's been a few weeks and his thumb is completely healed and when we ask him about his thumb he says: "Las hormigas ya se fueron" or in english: "the ants are all gone". When he had all those stitches on his thumb, it looked like a bunch of black ants and we told them that they were little ants healing his thumb.

This story actually put a smile on my face. Not because I take pleasure in his pain, but because the ant story is so cute. It really gives you an idea of what being child like is!
