Change of Plans & Deaf Child Bites Nurse

So, we've had a change of plans in the babysitting area. Next week the boys will be staying with one of our good friends, Traci, from church. She has one little girl who is in Kindergarten. She has graciously accepted the job of playing with my two sweet, fun, rowdy, and energetic boys. I know she can do it without a problem. She loves them so much and I appreciate her more than she knows. She didn't have much notice, but she only had to think about it for a brief moment before agreeing. She's great!!! Plus, this way the boys will not have to stay away from home overnight all week. Thank goodness for that. Now, they will only be away from us for 4 days when they are in Abilene.

I had a first today as a school nurse. We have a Deaf Ed program at our school. I love this!!! However, one of the kids has difficulty with potty issues. He had an accident and refused to come to the clinic (which he does often). There are a whole lot of other issues there. I won't go into detail. Anyway, he was putting up a fight and he started to throw himself on the ground. I put one hand under the back of his head to protect him as he went to the ground. When he got to the ground I tried to pull my arm away, but he wrapped his arms around my hand and bit me!!! That little turkey. It was really surprising because I'm one of the few people that he usually likes and will easily go with (with a little persuasion). Needless to say, I have two small, red teeth marks on my right wrist. It didn't hurt, it just surprised me. He still got his pants changed!!!!!!!!!
