Gracie's ER visit and Stitches

Gracie has a very exhausting and rough day.  She went to summer school, and while leaving the playground, she took a nasty spill on the ground, full on.  She hit the ground so hard, she snapped her glasses and sliced her head open.  The decision was that she needed stitches, but not just in the doctors office, but in the Emergency Room.  It made for a very long day for all of us, but she was such a trooper and got through it.  She needed at least 3 layers of stitches due to the size of the gash, but she had a great doctor and nurses and they took really good care of her.
