We went over to Jen's house today so Caleb could play with John and so I could have some adult conversation. As we were leaving, Caleb went into her closet to get his jacket and when he closed the closet door...WHAM!!! He slammed his thumb in the door. Immediately, it swelled up and turned blue and started to bleed. He was convinced that his thumb was going to fall off and by the screams, I was almost convinced too.
I pulled out all the stops to try to get his mind off his throbbing finger. Juice helped temporarily, but it wasn't till he got a new toy that he started to feel better and that only lasted till bedtime when he realized that the throbbing thumb is the one he sucks on at night. Poor boy, he couldn't find any comfort...
