Hyperbole

They should take away my parenthood license this week. Wednesday I was horsing around with my son and I thought I broke his wrist! He was in so much pain, I called my wife back (she was on her way to an appointment) and we took him to the ER. At some point while we were waiting in the ER waiting room, he was suddenly remarkably better. Basically, he seemed like he was in no pain at all. Turns out he had "Nursemaid's Elbow" (see about.com entry or just google it), which is common and is remedied simply by popping the elbow back in place (which he must have done himself!) But it gets better! While we were in the waiting room, my son was playing quietly by himself and I was watching our daughter, she fell down and started bleeding from her mouth! What had I done! Turns out, she just bit her lip – the bleeding stopped in less than a minute. But by that point I was thinking that it was time to suspend my license...
