Too Much Excitement Today

Our family has had way more than it's fair share of excitement today. DS3 and DS4 were cleaning the turtle tank outside this afternoon, when they both decided they needed the hose to wash their respective components.

DS4's hand lost the battle when it was lacerated (1" long and maybe 1/4-3/8" deep) where the thumb meets the palm of the hand by the nossle of the hose. He and I made a trip to the ER where it was ultimately stitched up. He was a trooper though the entire thing, although he'd perfer not having lidacaine injected under the skin again. He says it burns (I agree with this thought), but was ok watching the stitches being put in and even enjoyed joking with the ER team.
