Now that's a black eye!!

Davis jumped off the top bunk and landed on the end of the bottom bunk, hitting his check on the wood. Head injuries are so scary, he had all the signs of a concussion and I thought for sure he would have a broken cheek bone, busted teeth, or damage to his eye. I took him to the emergency room and they had him in a neck brace, the IV going, CT scan...you name it. He was so good through the whole thing and the doctors were amazed, he is perfectly fine! It is a miracle, he looks awful but he is back to running and playing and acts like nothing ever happened. Once the hospital staff realized they weren't dealing with a brain injury, we ended up waiting around for a few hours before they would discharge him so we sang songs, told stories, took pictures of everything in the room with my cell phone....it was kind of nice to hang out just the two of us even though it was bad circumstances. As we were leaving, Davis looked up at me and said, "Mom, you're my best friend" So sweet. Throughout the whole hospital experience I told him they were trying to make his cheek feel better so when we left I asked him if he liked the hospital and he said, "Yeah, but my cheek still hurts!"
