Passed out, but no picture!
My precious son learned some valuable lessons the hard way last week. He wouldn't get up for school and missed breakfast at home. I have breakfast bars for this reason, but he didn't get one. Halfway to school and too far to go back I asked him if he'd eaten, he said,"No." I reminded him he had money in his account to eat breakfast and sent him on his way. Instead of eating breakfast he went straight to "Robotics" which is his new love. (THAT'S ONE.) Third period is band and they are marching. He loves that, too. (band geek like his parents!! Go band!) Anyway, he was seriously light headed and would not sit down. (THAT'S TWO.)He has the fear of the band director. When I asked him why he didn't put his head between his knees he said, "Mom. It's band. You barely breathe if it means moving any body part!" So needless to say, he continued feeling lightheaded. He thought that locking his knees would keep him from swaying back and forth because of his lightheadedness. (THAT'S THREE.) He woke up on the ground in pain. He passed out and landed on his trumpet. (It is in need of serious repair)! He is okay, but it did shake him up. It has never happened to him before. This kid is rarely sick or even feeling bad. He doesn't want to admit it, but it scared him. When I got the call from school, I asked if he was okay, and the sweet nurse said I needed to come get him. Once, I fed him and he got to rest his side from landing on the horn...he was fine. But he learned 3 things not to do... The good news is that he was marching on the grass that day...not the ashpalt. He wouldn't allow a picture, but the sweet boy was head to toe grass stains and grass was still in his hair when I got to him. He can laugh about it now.
