Liquid Band-aid is my hero!

Alexa seems to be a bleeder.. I am going to talk to her Dr. about it. Tristan bit through her lip a while back and that bled like crazy.. Liquid Band-aid saved us a trip to the ER. Last night she did a jump/flip off her mattress, which she had put horizontally accross her bed. She landed on the edge of Tristan's bed.. hit her ear and split it the top of her ear lobe, just above her earring. Thankfully it did not tear her earring hole, I thought it had. I removed the earring and spent 20 minutes trying to clean it up and stop the bleeding. She screamed the whole time. In the end the liquid band-aid worked but not as quickly as usual, it kept bleeding through. The final injury is such a small wound, but bled like crazy. I don't think it was big enough for barely one stitch. and it wasn't deep at all.
Kierra was accident prone at this age. She broke her arm playing Superman off the edge of the couch and hit the coffee table.. hence, we don't have a coffee table! Kierra also hit her face hard against the under edge of our water bed at this age and also fell on rocks late at night once when she snuck outside to play on the swingset and scratched up her face pretty bad. We didn't have liquid band-aid back then! So we took alot of trips to the ER. Alexa almost went last night, but the liquid band-aid worked and it seems fine this morning. I should write a letter to the Liquid Band-aid company!
