At some point both of my boys have had black eyes - and now I can officially say my daughter has too! Bless her heart! I got a call from her school - it was her PE coach saying she'd been running and she collided with another girl and landed hard on her face. [pausing . . . she is an AWESOME runner! Her times blow me away! She must have inherited that running gene my sister had. It totally skipped me! Kbugs is FAST!!!!] They put ice on her eye but could tell it was swollen and likely to bruise. My poor baby! It doesn't matter how old the kids are . . . when they get hurt my instinct is to go get them and love on them like a baby - which doesn't work too well for them - especially at jr. high! :o)
So she's been walking around w a black eye. After about a week and a half it's almost gone now. I tried to help her think of some awesome top secret action story for her to explain how she got it. She humors me and just smiles and laughs . . . ("Just smile and wave boys . . . just smile and wave!" [Madagascar movie quote]) She's such a trooper!
