While I was in the garage visiting with my friend Diann, I heard the most awful loud shrill followed by multiple high pitch screams. As Brilynn came limping around the corner (still screaming) I looked at Diann and said, "Sorry, she's a little dramatic." Then as soon as I saw her forehead I immediately felt like the absolute #1 worst mom in the whole entire universe. She had wrecked on her bike and had multiple scrapes on her body and a huge goose egg on her head that was growing as I watched it. I first tried to get her settled down and then called John to see if he was almost home. I had Diann look at it to see if she thought I needed to have her looked at. We decided that she was probably okay but just needed to watch for signs of a concussion. John got home soon after the incident and we got Brilynn layed down in our bed, cleaned her cuts on her head, hands, and leg, got her a bubbly cold sprite, and turned on a "Goosebumps" movie for her. There's nothing worse as a mom then to see your children hurt and in pain.
Poor thing....I was wondering where she got the lovely scabby forehead. Don't you love yourself when the first thing out of your mouth is a little negative, for lack of a better word, when your kids start crying....I do it allllll the time. And then, of coarse, she's actually hurt...! YOu're a good mom!
It broke my heart to see her sweet face. You are a great mom and family and I miss you all very much. Tell her that NANA says " I LOVE YOUR FLIP FLOPS" I am sure their have been birthday parties... hum???????????????
John and I were married on August 5th 2000. Since then our family has multiplied very quickly. However, We never were able to figure out how to produce any males to carry on the "West" name. We are so blessed to have 4 wonderful girls and enjoy the life of "Parenting."

Glad she is okay! That goose egg on her head looks like it must have hurt when she took her spill! :(
