Another First

Add this to the long lists of firsts ... Brendan's first stitches, and our first trip to the emergency room for any of our kids. Brendan fell playing baseball with the neighbors, and needed 17 (!) stitches in his chin.

The funny thing is that he took it better than I would have. While we were checking in at the hospital, he was explaining to the nurse all of the injuries suffered by the Cardinals this season, with a complete breakdown by player, type of injury, and how the injury was suffered. As far as Brendan was concerned, he had just joined an elite club. This tells you (1) why the Cardinals didn't win the series this year; and more importantly, (2) why Brendan rocks.

All are doing well.
