I think the worst for me was when my son broke a 2x4 bench with his face playing tag. Of course he broke his cheek bone too. The white of his eye was filled with blood, for over a month which was painful just to look at. Then there was the fact that the injured side of his face was twice the size of the other and that took a year to go away. This year we were lucky, he just broke a wrist playing tag (for which the school didn't feel they needed to call me!) I think tag is about to be banned from our list of games! I hope he is feeling better!Pennyhttp://handsewfull.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5069140341550751353.post-56775877857084403922011-04-23T09:52:15.504-04:002011-04-23T09:52:15.504-04:00Thank you so much.

The last black eye we had in this family was about 3 years ago when my oldest son was 5, He took a dart to the eye trying to throw it at a balloon. It bounced off and landed in the corner of his eye next to his nose. Praise the Lord that it was only bruised and bleeding and that he didn't lose his eye. I'd never seen so much blood coming from a child's face though. Thanks for the encouragement Penny.Aimee Larsenhttp://homespun-threads.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5069140341550751353.post-2122659506474506882011-04-23T09:48:58.581-04:002011-04-23T09:48:58.581-04:00Ooouch!

The things we never even think of kids can manage to do. Jake will be bruised for a few days, but he hasn't complained so I consider him pretty lucky.Aimee Larsenhttp://homespun-threads.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5069140341550751353.post-27649330568256583182011-04-22T20:13:09.530-04:002011-04-22T20:13:09.530-04:00Ouch!

My little man (now twelve ) is just as accident prone as his Mamma.....we have had a few real "doozies", so I know how bad you feel as a Mamma. Sometimes he gets hurt even broken, doing things that you wonder "how could you possibly get hurt doing that?!" But...it happens, frozen peas and hugs are the way to go!

He was throwing a huge fit, so I let him sit under there. Well, he put his fingers on the wheel and his thumb got caught. It ripped it up pretty badly and he lost the nail. Some things just happen, although to look at the faces of the people in the store, I was the first. {Shrug}. Accidents happen and all 4 of my boys are still living so I guess I'm making some good decisions along the way!

He isn't complaining at all so that is good. Thanks for caring so much, it means alot.Aimee Larsenhttp://homespun-threads.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5069140341550751353.post-91962993432247502322011-04-22T15:10:05.725-04:002011-04-22T15:10:05.725-04:00Thank you so much.

I couldn't stand those carts before and now I really don't like them. I just used them to make the boys happy.Aimee Larsenhttp://homespun-threads.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5069140341550751353.post-28343834963940276372011-04-22T14:03:24.087-04:002011-04-22T14:03:24.087-04:00That is no fun!
