Yesterday, Brendan was playing while standing in between two dining chairs, about an arm's length away, with his back to me. He slipped and fell on his butt. Normally, this is not a cause for concern since he is well padded there. However, this time he started bawling, so I rushed over to attend to him. His mouth was full of blood!
Turns out he had bitten his lip. It was quite a scary situation as I thought he had bit his tongue. I always feel bad when I witness him hurt himself, especially if my negligence may have played a role. His pants were too long and I should have done something about them beforehand.
