One Tough Kid

We were riding our bikes over to Grammy and Grampy's house for dinner which we have done a handful of times before. This was the first time on Lincoln's new bike. We are on the paseos for most of the ride over there. We got into their track and were riding along Via Macarena towards the paseos at the end of the street. Rich told Lincoln to get up on the sidewalk and all of a sudden down he went. It happened so fast. He was crying instantly. We went over to him and I noticed a small pool of blood on the asphalt and his finger was dripping blood. I grabbed the only thing I had in my backpack was Rocky's jammies so we used that to help stop the bleeding. Then we had Lincoln hop on his bike and continue the ride up to Grammy's house! He made it with the help of his dad. We cleaned it up and got Band-Aids on it. Lincoln sat on the couch with Grammy while we ate some dinner. He got hungry and came over to eat and started whimpering when he couldn't use his finger to eat his dinner. It was so sad!! Rich felt horrible because he didn't grab his gloves before we left. But now we know to always have his gloves on when we go for a ride. Daddy asked Lincoln if he wanted to ride his bike home or get a ride in Grammy's car. He totally wanted to ride home and hopped right on his bike and rode hard all the way home!! The next day we took his band aid off and it looks like he has a red fingernail.

Not sure if it will grow back okay we will see.
