Waiting on CPS!!

So I’m just waiting on Child Protective Services to come knocking on our front door.  Saturday we cleaned out our entire garage, literally pulled EVERYTHING out, sorted, and put things back organized, nice, and neat.  We had out sitter come over to play with Bo so we could actually get things done.  They were outside with us and as he was walking into the garage he tripped on his shoes and fell face forward into the driveway.  He also scraped up his knee pretty bad.  We came inside to clean him up and I’m not kidding when I say less than 3 minutes he was begging to go back outside, the big scraped up knot on his head, hadn’t even phased him.  He actually threw quite a tantrum to go back out, but I wanted to keep an eye on his bump for a little bit.  I could tell it wasn’t as bad as the one we had 3 weeks ago, but to be on the safe side I called Children’s Healthcare, the same place we took him last time.  I spoke with a nurse, who after pulling his chart, was kind enough to mention that we had just been there for the same thing…yes, I know thank you VERY much for your demeaning, judgmental sarcasm, can you please just tell me if my child is okay??  I was so embarrassed, literally the same exact thing a fall with a knot on the head.  I think I’ve decided to start putting him in a helmet!  Anyway, we got an all clear from the nurse nazi and just kept a close eye on him, we knew the drill…watch for loss of balance/coordination, wake while sleeping, call if excessively cranky, which by the way at what point do you call for excessive crankiness because he is TWO, they may want to rethink that warning sign.  Later that day he was back in full force…he doesn’t miss a beat!
