It's A Hard Knock Life...

for us!! Since Dylan is now mobile, we have been experiencing so many bumps on the head. In an earlier post, I did mention his first big boo-boo. Well, in the one week since he has began to crawl and pull-up, I believe the grand total of injuries is at least four. And ALL to that sweet head! I can be sitting right next to him while he pulls up on the table or crawls to a new toy, and I STILL can't keep it from happening! I do believe I am experiencing a lifetime of the phrase "You hurt when your kids hurt". I always heard my mom saying that even as an adult. If I was sad, she was always sad with me. Not that I didn't believe her, but I did think she was making too big of a deal about it. NOW I GET IT! Each time I feel responsible and sad! I will say Dylan is one tough cookie. The big boo-boos do produce serious pain and tears, but the minor stuff like bumping his head on toys doesn't phase him. What a tough, strong boy! I'm sure these injuries will pale in comparison to those to come in the future. BUT, it is still a big deal to this Mommy right now. Part of raising up boys = a hard knock life!
