There is nothing like a good old fashioned freak accident to slow you down and make you count your blessings. Last week while my two daughters were at their grandmothers home they got ahold of a pair of sewing scissors. My oldest, trying to save the youngest, grabbed ahold of the blade. The scissors sliced through nail, fingetip, and chipped off the bone of my oldest's right ring finger for a complete amputation. It was quite a trauma for a little four year old and she was depressed and confused about it for days. The best thing seems to be getting her back into her normal routine as quickly as possible. We are all looking forward to seeing the plastic surgeon tomorrow to see if the replacement of her fingertip is "taking".
