So last Friday the kid's were playing at one of the neighbor's house's. Andrew comes home and says " Hey Mom, Angela is here and you need to come and meet her now." Angela is the mother of Jake and Jesse, some neighbor kid's who the boy's play with all of the time. So I went outside expecting to just kind of chit-chat. Angela and I have spoken on the phone and the kid's even spent the night over at her house earlier this summer.
So I come outside and she is frantic, has my baby boy Brandon at her side and he is crying and she pulls up his shirt and tells me that their dog had bit my boy!
The dog is up to date and the skin was really not broken too badly, but as you can see he bruised something awful! I'm sure that she initially thought that we would sue, but Brett and I felt that as long as the dog had it's shot's and he was not bleeding that much, he did not need stitches, a trip to the hospital was not necessary.
Brandon is recovering quite well, just still bruised. The neighbor ( and later her husband and kid's ) stayed here talking until almost 11:30 that night.
So slowly, slowly we are finally after 8 years here, starting to get to know the neighbor's!
Brandon is really ok and was even ready to go back to their house the next morning!
