Even SUPEHEROS get stitches

The original plan was to go home, relax, put my feet up and vegetate a while before dinner. What with the lack of sleep after adventures with the Wonderdog the night before, I was ready to call it an early night to catch up on some much needed shut eye. NOT SO FAST!
I developed a slight headache which snowballed into a throbbing headache. 
Captain America met a fellow hero for an unplanned dinner date so I bowed out of preparing a large feast for all and settled for tuna casserole prepared by our middle hero (what a sweet boy - teenagers get a bad rap). He had pity on his exhausted matriarch. 
After having a plate of the yummy goodness, I settled in for an extended nap. NOT SO FAST! Our youngest hero, Mr. Fantastic , decided to show off his super human strength by shoving his very human arm through the storm window and seriously slicing his very human skin. After a display of super human mom-speed to stop the bleeding, Cap, Mr. Fantastic and I planned a trip to the emergency room where we were schooled in surgical knots (three to be exact). We were in and out in less than two hours and I could not have asked for a better ER experience. (THANKS M.U.S.C!)
So, my Mr. Fantastic is still fantastic and once again has discovered a way to get out of his daily duties much to the dismay of his brothers. This only leaves me with one comment. Sleep is underrated.
