Our itsy bitsy spider climbed into a web of hurt this afternoon when he pulled a chair down on his head. We had been washing the floors and stacked the chairs upside down (closing time at the pub style) on the table. Jude was able to grab hold of the back on a chair and out of the corner of me eye he just went down with the chair bouncing off his forehead. When I picked him up his forehead looked squished and fluid was moving under the skin. We were shaken and dashed to the ER where most of our fears were allayed. He looked a lot better once the mountain of forehead fluids subsided. He was happy and playful this evening before bed, although I have to wake him every couple hours and see if he is behaving normally for a one year old rudely woken in the night. How do I determine that? I am grateful and relieved to still have a little spider to crawl around our house.
