I really don't think she hit her head that hard. The way she described it she rode into some rocks (gravel) and toppled over and banged her head on the fence next to the ball field. I'd have to have her show me where to really understand how she fell.
She's limping around but not bending her knee at all which is understandable considering how it looks. She's eating right now and then I'm going to get her in the tub to clean the wounds. It's going to be a lot of screaming, I'm sure. Every time I mentioned cleaning her knee her little lip would start to quiver but she'd put on this brave face and start to take the bandaids off and I kept telling her to relax and we'd do it later (she was still kind of shocky at the time).
With kids it's always hard to tell concussion sleepiness from the kid needs a nap sleepiness. Because all the crying tends to make them tired or bring out the fact that they needed a nap to begin with. She's still asking if she can go to sleep (it's only 5:30pm here so way before her bedtime) but I keep distracting her. Poor kid.
