We were on just on the way to breakfast when it happened.  I was carrying Kai on my shoulders at I often do and mistepped on some cobblestone and then both Kai and I came down.  Kai got the worst of it, coming chin down and making an unpleasant gash which started bleeding.  So a beautiful sunny morning was spent in the hospital waiting for the one surgeon to take a look and then glue the wound shut.

But we had lollipops, ice cream, swinging in the park, pancakes with berries, syrup AND whipped cream (plus mom and dad had a break for a few hours while the kids slept off their individual ailments — Teo was a bit under the weather as well).  24 hours later, we were not perfect, but on the way to recovery.
