Sunday morning

By Sunday morning her eye was nearly swollen shut, & part of her lip was swollen too. I think all the rest of us hurt to just look at her!

Keep that ice going girl! By Monday it was doing better, a thick scab had formed, & she was pretty good about keeping ointment on it & not picking at it. Today, a week later the scab just fell off, and I don't think there's going to be any sign of it when she goes back to school next week!

Sledding bruises

A great way to start off vacation... The kids had a sledding party with friends & cousins on Saturday the 22nd. Meshayla and Kara came home looking like this. Kara went flying off the sled & skidded on the icy snow on her face. When she first got home & came in, I thought someone was playing jokes... looked like a circle of paint. Soon tho we saw it was swelling, and I tried to get her to keep ice on it. Not an easy task when there's a house full of kids to play with.
