Two black eyed boys
My two boys (husband and son)are pretty active so they usually have battle wounds somewhere on their bodies, but never the same injury at the same time. I have two boys with black eyes right now. Cody and Daniel were wrestling on our bed and of course it ended up with Cody falling off and an etch-a-scetch came a-tumbling down after him, hitting him in the eye. The picture doesn't do the injury justice. It wouldn't be anything too interesting except Daniel came home from work with a black eye too! I keep telling him to come up with a good story like he was in a fire and a beam came down and hit him as he was rescuing a child, but he keeps telling the real story that he was playing basketball at work and got hit in the eye. At least make it sound like you were working!!! (They do have a requirement of 1 hour of physical activity a shift) I've told a couple of people the rescue story at first and it's been pretty funny. So my two boys with black eyes are twins with thier recent battle wounds!
Every year two ducks from the near by pond come into our neighborhood during the Spring time. They've recently returned and Cody loves to feed them crackers and bread. We are trying to explain to him why he shouldn't chase them so they will stay for a little while. Here is Cody feeding them in our front yard.
