While I was tutoring today the kids went over a neighbor's house to play. A few minutes later Cat comes running in saying "It's an emergency" The little girl-Kaleigh, and Cat were swinging on their swing set while the boys played soccer. Cat had just gotten off the swing when it came crashing down on Kaleigh's head!! Poor thing...she ended up going to the ER and getting 7 staples on the top of her head. She also had some bruising on her back. After tutoring we went to the hospital and picked up her brother so their parents could concentrate on Kaleigh.
The kids were so sweet on our way to pick him up we all prayed and their prayers were just so sweet!!
I am so very thankful that Cat had gotten off when she did...praise God for his protection, for Kaleigh as well-it could have been much worse for her! When everyone returned their dad, Blake, asked if I saw the swing set, I hadn't, he said the sight of it just made him sick-realizing what could have been.

yikes! what kind of swing set was it?
It was one of those big wooden ones!
Rob-It is a wonder you survived childhood!! Hopefully, your children won't take after you! Then again they don't have a big cousin around to "help" those accidents occur!
oh those scary times do test you. Praise the Lord it all worked out and wasn't worse!
