Black Eye


So last night I was playing with Emma before we put her to bed. She was playing with a puzzle that has a stick that goes with it that she can use to place the pieces in and out of it. It has a magnet on the end and the pieces have magnets in them. While she was playing she was swinging it around. I told her to be careful because it could hit someone. Well.... I was the person that got hit ,right under my eye. After she did it a HUGE welt appeared and I could see it under my eye. Thank goodness today it has just become a very colorful black eye. It was fun going to work and explaining to everyone why I have a black eye! But as I was talking to other mothers each one of them had a story of similar times with their children. What us mothers go through! :)

Those puzzles ARE dangerous!! We had those in nursery at church and the kids really liked swinging them around. :) I am so sorry you got a black eye, but I am kind of looking forward to the picture!

Love you!

Suggestions for girls camp: just relax and have fun. Don't worry about the small problems and really try to enjoy the girls.

I am so sorry I haven't written you in awhile. I hope I still have your email address. I hope you are doing well. Emma is so cute! She is at the best stage. By the way, Amber looked beautiful at her wedding. I finally got her present sent out last week. It has been crazy here. For camp ideas, you may want to check out www.sugardoodle.net. It is a great website. Let me know your email address so I can make sure I have the correct one. Have a great day!
