Working through the accident

Although the car accident didn't seem to be something traumatic to the boys, we continue to talk about it all the time. Tanner spends a good portion of every day drawing "maps" or explaining the "instructions" he has drawn to anyone who will listen. If we just follow the maps,we won't crash again. He also likes to wear his bike helmet a lot. He wore it to the library on Saturday, and Dave was appalled to think that the townsfolk will think our kid is nuts.

The other thing that is all too obvious is that we have been to too many doctors appointments, as Tanner now reenacts being the doctor. We have been to our family practice doctors, the chiropractor, and he remembers the doctors and nurses from the hospital both at the time of the accident and when we had Braden. I hope this isn't something we will need therapy for later!

Emily loves her helmet too! She'll play outside with it on and I wonder if the neighbors think we're OCD or accident prevention or something. It's just the age!
