We had another eventful evening on the scooter. Pretty sure Aspen and London were racing again, but this time it was on the sidewalk. London hit a rut, lost control and went down. He would have been fine except for those dang glasses. Serious puncture wound right at the tip of the eyebrow, and he'll probably have a black eye in the shape of the glasses lens by morning.
He was screaming like a Banshee, blood all over the sidewalk. Aspen was freaking out. But as I wiped it off and saw how tiny it was we all just took a breather and I got them to relax. After I explained how bad head wounds bleed, even when the cut is small London calmed down quite a bit. He walked the rest of the way home and said it only stung a little.
It'd more or less stopped bleeding by the time we got home. No stitches or glue needed. Just a little Neosporin and a bandaid and we're good to go.
Our neighbor friend just put his fist through a window and did have to get stitches just last night. So we made up a good story that they got into a fight. Personally, I think London looks like he came out on top. :)

Ouchie! Looks like his cheek got a nice scraping. Or maybe that's wiped off blood.
Just out of curiosity, why was your neighbor putting his fist through a window? Sounds pretty painful.
Ouch sorry. My mom has asked me why my kids don't wear their helmets on their scooters (they do wear them when they ride bikes). It just never occurred to me that they could get a head injury on their scooters. Your recent bout of bad luck makes me think I should have them start wearing the helmets.
Our neighbor was wrestling with his teenage brother and lost his temper. Must be a pretty wussie window though if a 7 year old can punch through it, that or he's a lot tougher than he looks.
wow, those scooters make me nervous. The wheels are too small, one small move and you are out of control!
