I guess he's the winner this month...

Owwie of the Month Club winner, that is. This one was earned on the bus from playing too rough with kids who are too big. I guess it's like the chihuahua-that-thinks-it's-a-bulldog sort of thing. He was embarrassed that he had cried in front of his friends. The busdriver, thankfully, is a friend of mine who has 6 kids (5 boys) and didn't freak out... Instead of stitches, I went to the pharmacy and got myself some Steri-strips and superglue. Fixed him right up. And saved myself about a thousand bucks. And I gotta say, after seeing how they do it in the ER about 5 times now, I think I did just as good a job as they do. And what little boy doesn't have a scar of some kind by their eye? Answer me that.

Its true! Every boy has a scar by his eye--or somewhere on his face! Good job on the fixing up! You make the nurse in me proud! Sorry for Gage--he can handle it! :)

Maybe you should consider nursing. With all this experience, you appear to remain cool, calm & collected!

Amen to that! Ryker and Conner both have one in that same exact spot. We did the same thing last week, Ryker got a huge gash on his shoulder and we just taped it up too. Kids are expensive. I love the picture of your kids, they are so cute.
