Charlotte had a run in with the pavement yesterday, poor girl! She actually handled it like a champ, because after she fell she laid there for a tad bit (she was down the block) and before I could even reach her, she was up and running again (away from me-but only cause she was running after a friend). So, I stopped worrying about her. However, then it must of hit her all of a sudden that she was hurt, because she stopped running and turned toward me, and that's when I saw red all over her face. She started running toward me, all teary eyed. (And of course I was running toward her.) It wasn't bleeding, but just a bad scrape. At first I thought it was like a bug bite, or a rash. (I know strange, considering I knew she fell, but I guess I thought her FACE wouldn't have hit the pavement.)
You would think that it would look better today, being the day after her injury, but it actually looks worse, with her eye bruising a bit. And when we were out today at the grocery store EVERYONE commented on it. Charlotte's tough though. I don't even think she realizes she's hurt until she looks in the mirror.
