Who would have imagined that my son would have split his head open two days before his birthday?!?! Austin-Ryan was simply snuggling on the couch with me since I was sick with the flu, he gets up and cracks his head on the fireplace splitting his head open. Poor kid sat in the emergency room with a gaping hole in his head for two hours before a doctor even looked at him. He then proceeded to be wrapped like a burrito and had 6 stitches in his forehead above his right eye. He's doing well now but I felt terrible about it! He simply tripped over a birthday toy he had received a day earlier. He is doing well now and got the stitches out last Friday. It's starting to heal up nicely. I am praying that he doesn't have too narly of a scar. Hopefully this Mederma for kids stuff will work well.
Speaking of birthday party, we had a GREAT party for him on September 30, 2008 at Felton Covered Bridge Park and he LOVED it! It was a fire truck theme. He absolutely loved the ice cream cupcakes mommy made with firemen/firetruck theme toppings (stickers with toothpicks), the friends he had come to enjoy his special day with him, the beautiful warm weather we had that day, and not to mention the great firemen hats they all got to wear as party favors. He had a firetruck pinata which I think he enjoyed watching mommy "smash" open to get all the candy out. He thought that was pretty cool! We all enjoyed the day. He even got to enjoy some of the toys he got after he opened all the presents. It has to be the best birthday and most positive experience I have had in enjoying the day with him. I had so much fun and it will definitely be a day to remember for years! It's the first time we have had a birthday at the park and it worked out great!! Couldn't have asked for better weather! Funny how the 4th of October (which is usually the weekend I have his birthday party) rained...as it always does. I think I finally figured out how to get his birthday at the park and get away with great weather. Have it the week before. I hope all of who ever read this know how much we are blessed and appreciate every day that God has given to us. I feel so blessed to have these two boys of mine and couldn't feel more blessed and appreciate the small little things they do. I am thankful for health, two sweet boys who are doing so well and bring so much joy to my life! I can only pray that they continue to see God's glory every day and to seek and serve him for the rest of their lives! It's what life is all about!

Hi, I work with Mederma for Kids and noticed your blog post. I just wanted to make sure you are aware of the recommended application for Mederma and that the best results are achieved when you apply as directed. To use, you should gently massage Mederma into the scar three or four times per day for eight weeks on new scars and three to six months on existing scars. Because it is greaseless, easy-to-use and dries quickly, Mederma can be conveniently applied throughout the day at work or home. We also have a new product, Mederma Cream +SPF30, which provides the same therapeutic ingredient as original Mederma and Mederma for Kids, but in a moisture-rich cream formula that also offers protection from sun exposure because the sun can cause scar discoloration. To find out more about Mederma and to get answers to other questions you might have, go to their website, www.mederma.com or www.medermaforkids.com, and review all of the information there. Also, there are discount coupons on each site you can print for your purchase. Best wishes on a speedy recovery for Austin-Ryan.
Awww, poor guy! I am soooo glad we have never had a hospital trip on a birthday! =0)
I hope everything is going well!
Talk to you later!
