The kids went out trick or treating with my mom, my aunt and one of their cousins. They were SO happy and excited and I was actually sad that I was too sick to join them.
I get a frantic call from my aunt about 45 mins later, saying my 4 year old has been bowled over by a running teenager. He smashed face first into the road and was covered in blood. DH and jumped in the car to go get him and found him with two split lips (top and bottom), a bloody nose, and scratches all over his face.
I was so sad that I could have cried, but I held it together for him. I'm so upset that such a fun experience was completely ruined for him... I'm tearing up now just thinking about it.
Of course I wish the teenager would have been smarter, but I realize that kids just don't think. As soon as he realized what happened he stopped to apologize and to try to help, so at least that's good.
My poor little guy!!!
