Nothing makes a parent feel more helpless than when their child gets hurt.
Yesterday, our town was a declared a "state of emergency" because of the blizzard we were in the midst of and after Emily the daredevil fell and put a tooth through her lip our house was in a state of emergency as well.
There was lots of yelling, crying and blood and even though Nick and I wanted to cry with her, we had to pull ourselves together and tend to our boo boo girl. The blood, and there was lots of it, is what scared us the most.
A couple hours later, when she had finally stopped crying she put a band-aid on the boo boo, because that's what you do with boo-boos, and went on with her day.
Two hours later 
The following day("Don't take my picture Mommy, I look freaky!")
"It's not so bad!"
