Peter's E.R. Visit

Peter got an all-expenses-paid trip to the Baltimore-Washington Medical Center's Emergency Room today, courtesy of a large gash at his right eyebrow. The gash was courtesy of an older brother who was not in the mood to share trains, so gave young Peter a wee push. (The culprit was duly disciplined.) This caused Peter's head to contact either Grandfather's antique table or the hardwood floor (we're not sure which) while falling down.

Jessica endured three hours at the E.R. Word is that the nursing staff had to wrap Peter tightly in a blanket (baby burrito style) and pin him down to keep him sufficiently immobilized for the stitching. He made mighty use of his lungs during this process. They had to give FIVE stitches total.

For our younger viewers, the moral is this: share your toys, and don't push.
