I don't know if it is just both my children, but they often come home from school with they call prescription forms (accident description sheets) from school, with various descriptions of what accidents have befallen them.
I think they call them prescriptions, as they have seen me get mine and their fathers (real prescriptions) from the doctors.
They have both managed to clash heads with someone by running into them. In fact, that happened on my 4 year old's first day.
But other woes already have included a grazed knee, a poorly tummy and a metal splinter.
But this one I got the other day did make me laugh...
What????
How do you get a brick dropped on your forehead?
I asked my daughter about this and she said someone had thrown a brick at her. There was no red mark there on her forehead by the time she got home and she wasn't bothered by it, so I didn't pursue it.
It really makes you wonder what they get up to at school.
My four year old always comes home complaining that this little boy keeps chasing her and I asked the teacher about this and she said that my daughter keeps asking him to chase her.
He is always telling his mummy how much he loves my daughter.
And my daughter is always telling me how much she doesn't like him.
Tales with a pinch of salt.
My eldest once banged her head on the table and everything seemed fine, then she was poorly and sick during the night, so I was worried it was concussion, or something more serious.
I called the NHS advice line, here in the UK and they sent a paramedic out to come and check her over just in case.
Turned out she had the flu. Just bad timing.
That incident is now referred to by her as “the time I almost went to hospital”.
The only 'accident' I can recall from school is hanging upside down of the monkey bars, falling off and landing on my head, walking a few steps and fainting and coming around to someone saying “is she dead?”.
I was fine, don't think my mum got an accident form then, though.
But I have also managed to run across a road, trip over the pavement and and bang my head on the wall. That was a black eye and a half. A policeman stopped and asked me if I wanted to go to the hospital and I said 'no', because I didn't want the neighbours gossiping about me coming home in a police car.
I'm praying that the kids aren't as clumsy as me...
Not looking good so far.
