Brittany Concert, Zachary Boo Boo
Today was quite the interesting day! Brittany had a concert tonight featuring all the honors music groups. She sang with the Honors Chorus and played her violin with the Chamber Orchestra. She is doing quite well! She just got a brand new violin ($1400 ouch!) but it sounds soooo much better than her old rented one. She loves to sing and play! Just like with Kirstyn, last Thursday, it is amazing to see how much progress these kids are making!
Unfortunately, I didn’t get to see the concert, and Angela only got to see a little bit of it. While I was taking Brittany and one of her friends over to the concert, Zach fell after getting out of the tub and cut his forehead open! 🙁 When I got home, they were stopping the bleeding and Kirstyn felt horrible (she was in charge of making sure he got out and dressed). 😐 We took him over to the emergency room at the hospital and got him taken care of. He was very worried that it would hurt like crazy when they stitched him up! We helped calm him and he was VERY brave.
While the doctor was deciding whether to glue or stitch, Zachary said: “I don’t want sew, I want glue!” It was pretty funny and we had to laugh! 🙂 The doctor decided to glue which was a big relief for Zach and he didn’t even flinch during the process! He was quite happy after that. He got a popcicle for being so brave (Ben got one too which he thoroughly enjoyed)!
After leaving the hospital, Zach, Ben, and I dropped Angela off at the school for the rest of the concert and we came back home. We all felt very bad that we couldn’t support Brittany! She was very sweet and brought Zach back a bunch of cookies from the reception after the concert. 🙂
