Injury X 7

Ephraim fell between two circular climbing poles with 4 rings on each and he hit all of them on the way down, kind of like plinko. He had the following injuries in addition to the stitches: 2 goose eggs on his head, bloody knee, bitten tongue, sore jaw and sore elbow. The doctor gently tried to ask Ephraim if he gets hurt like that frequently, suspecting he had been abused. Honestly, if I saw a kid with that many injuries I would suspect abuse, too. But it's still embarrassing to have them question us like that. Time for bed. Glad tomorrow is a new day. Oh, and no swimming for 14 days. Boo!

Playing a game where you have to put your hand out to find candy without getting hurt by a mousetrap. It was funny! Nobody knew we had rigged the mousetrap not to go off. They were so nervous.
