Poor Keller

So today has been one rough day for both Keller and myself. This morning I decided to take Keller to the local park for a while, because after battling a double ear infection he was finally feeling better today, and he was more than ready to get out of the house. After only being at the park for no more than ten minutes, poor Keller got really hurt. For those of you who don't really know Keller, he has a fearless personality. He will do anything, and whatever the big boys are doing, he wants do. I use to go down the slides with him, but lately he has been persistent on going all by himself, and I wait at the bottom to catch him... not anymore! So, here I am, waiting at the bottom of the slide for him to come down... he slides down on his bottom with no problems, or at least I thought everything was okay. All of sudden he starts screaming and holding his eye, and then lots of blood starts flowing down his face! I was obviously scared and in a panic, because I had no clue what had happened or the severity of Keller's wound. So I grabbed him, and rushed home. After getting home, and cleaning him up, he looked much better! I seriously thought he had cut his eye all the way through to his actual eye ball. Luckily, he just sliced the top half of his eyelid, and I'm not kidding about half of his eyelashes got ripped out as well. It was so sad:( But of course, he is still acting like his happy self! Boys are amazing! Anyway, I have no clue what actually happened, but I do know that we will not be going back to that slide for a very long time! We are taking him to the doctor later just to make sure he doesn't need stitches. I'll post a picture later.

Kennedy is so sad that she couldn't be there to hold his hand and give him a kiss when he was crying. We hope everything is ok!

How scary! I am glad he is ok though!
