Grace was helping set the table while in Colusa last week, and dropped a big plate on her big toe. It split her toe open and there was a lot of blood! It was one of those moments where I wanted to look away, but realized that I was the one who had to examine it and decide if we'd go to the ER or not! Fortunately, my mom was there, and could help with bandages, etc. But when she asked me how deep the cut was, I truly did not want to assess it because I was afraid of what I'd see!
We decided to treat it ourselves, and while we were doing so, Will and Kate looked on very concerned. They knew this was bigger than just an "owie". Kate went to Grace and gave her a big hug. And Will looked at Grace and said, "I'll finish setting the table for you. You can go watch a show."
Through her tears Grace said, "I don't want Will to finish my job because I don't want him to get hurt like me."
It was one of those sweet moments that I told myself I should write down, so that's what I'm doing:).
