If I had been a mean mom, I would have made her stand there and cry while I got a picture of the blood oozing down her leg, the huge tears and look of defeat on her face, but I did what any good mom would have done and cleaned her up before taking photos. She just learned to ride without training wheels a couple months ago. Yes, I know she is six, and normally really brave, but not so much with the bike. Now that she has learned she freaks me out. She is a speed demon and it would not surprise me to see her going off jumps. Thank goodness she always wears her helmet. Wyatt came running into the house Saturday freaking out: "Mom, come quick, Lexi is hurt really bad." I always wonder what I will find when my children say this. I go outside to see the neighbor lady walking Lexi and her bike around the corner. We got her cleaned up and one hour later, she was riding again.
Lexi is a major manipulator and realized she could milk this for all it was worth. She had her brothers waiting on her hand and foot. This girl has it all figured out!

Poor thing! I couldn't believe how big it was. She is sure a trooper. I wish you could have seen her rollerblading at my house. Yes, rollerblading and trying to hold scissors at the same time. I ran as fast as I could to tackle the situation. Gotta love her!
