Black Eye

It's official!!

Mason has received his first black eye. Yesterday afternoon he was playing outside with our dog, Bruiser, and he slipped on the ice and fell down and landed on the side of his head and now he has a nice shiner!

He was pretty upset about it last night when we told him that he was going to have a black eye because he thought that his whole eye was going to turn black even the whites of his eye! He was pretty upset about what the kids at school were going to say to him, but we told him to just tell them that if they thought he looked bad that they should see the other guy and he thought that that was pretty funny. It doesn't look to bad today, but it is pretty tender to the touch. He landed pretty hard!! Poor Kid!!

Mason with his Shiner!
