Black Eye Alert!




Our poor little Bella was skipping and fell straight into a metal bed frame. She cut her eye open, we took her to ER and she had her skin glued back together. She was so brave (thank goodness for her Daddy and me!). The entire staff at Kaiser fell in love with the little girl in her ballet clothes, and sparkle ballet slippers. I kept her home from school today because her eye is more swollen this morning then it was last night. I also think that all of us are sort of fighting off a cold, so I figured rest would be good. However, she has been skipping down the hallway all morning, reenacting for all my daycare kids how she hurt herself, and says she is home from school today because her mother didn't buy her a mask! She said she would need a mask in order to go to school because she doesn't look as beautiful (she doesn't want to let her fans down!). I know that might sound horrible for a little girl to say such a thing, but she says stuff like that in such a "matter of fact" way, it honestly doesn't come across sounding vain!
Anyways....I thought you would all like to see our little fallen dancer! Thank God it wasn't more serious!
