Viewer descretion is advised!


so the picture you are about to look at requires some explaining. oh and by the way i know this is my first blog in a very long time so sorry to come back with such sad news. anyway, Eliana was riding in the very back of the Swanson's pilot and when we arrived at our destination she decided she would climb over the back seat with the bigger kids. little did Rachel know the trauma that could be caused just by opening the back hatch. well i bet you can probably guess what happened next. yes my daughter fell out of the back of the vehicle right onto her head. i would estimate probably about four feet straight to asphalt. ouch! i picked her up and there was blood all over her face. so scary. i rushed inside to find something to clear away the blood so i could tell how bad it was. and of course freaked out the Mcadam kids. I kind of yelled at them to open the door, sorry. oops! it turns out that the cut was not that bad but as you can tell by the picture she had a goose egg about the size of a golf ball. she cried and cried and then we offered her a peep and all of a sudden everything was okay. the next day the swelling had gone down to about a fourth of the size and she is now doing just fine.

Ouch!!!! Poor Eliana! I'm glad she has a strong noggin! Don't worry about your "mother moment" when you charged into the house like a mommy rhino. I would have done the same thing!
