Lila "Scarface" Billingsley

Well, anyone who knows me is aware that I have the agility of a trained professional athlete with cat-like reflexes and the athletic grace of a gazelle.

James, on the other hand, falls down a lot. He twists his ankle daily, and it is not uncommon for him to run into things... even walls and doors that have been in the very same place for 10 years.

Well, I'm afraid my girls inherited his coordination because guess who spent the afternoon at the EMERGENCY ROOM???


That's right folks! Lila took a header into our nightstand and came up from the spill with a gash through which you could see the person standing behind her!


Our Saturday afternoon was spent watching multiple unspeakable trauma's rolling into the ER, a triage nurse that kept telling us "Just 20 more minutes," and fellow ER visitors telling us to just go home and glue it up ourselves.

I could not imagine a greater way to spend the day. Good times.

Just another injury-prone day Being Billingsley...

Oh god bless your little hearts. It's so funny...and yet not. I hope you're laughing in hindsight :o) By the way, is the description of our blog new, or am I just that out of it? Hope next weekend is better!
