So many of you that have seen me lately may have noticed a little extra feature I have obtained lately. (hint: not the baby bump)
If you have only seen me from a distance, like some of my ward members did on Sunday and I stood in front of y'all, you may have thought, "Boy she's got some major baggage under the eye. She looks so tired." or "Someone ought to let her know she's got some serious mascara smears going on." or "Poor girl, did her mother not tell her that eye shadow goes ABOVE the eye?"
But if you actually got closer you'd notice it is none of the above.
Yes. That is a real BLACK EYE. You may begin to wonder if Dan has left town in shame, or if being that I live in a house of wild boys, one of their "dangerous weapons" (swords, sling shots, magic wands, light sabers, etc...) unfortunately made contact with my cheek bone. But no, it is also none of the above.
I was attacked by none less than a certain birthday present from a certain sister of mine. Silly sister, She thought a YOYO would be a "safe" gift. WRONG!
That's right, my friends, a YOYO!
Tracen was trying to show me a new trick when the darn thing went "the wrong way" and connected with my eye.
Lovely. How long do black eyes last?

Mine was black & blue for a week and green for 3 days. Ah, poor Dee. It is embarrassing, people can't help but stare. You make it look good.

I do not know why that saved twice. I only pushed the button once.
Oh my. A yo-yo to the eye and pregnant. What a lovely day that must have been.
You know, I don't think I've ever had a black eye before, which means I'm probably due for a similar incident - I DO have 3 boys, after all.
I feel so terrible! Next year I'll make sure to only give your kids pillows... but I'm sure they'll figure out how to sufficate their little brother or something like that. Oh well, such is life with 3(Maybe 4) BOYS! Good luck.
