The fight! - May 2011

Have you ever seen a sadder face in all of your life?

Talk about break your heart!!

Tyler was outside in the backyard playing with Bryant and Ty (his best friend). They were playing baseball - which is their very most favorite thing to do. Then, it happened. Tyler was trying to score and decided that he probably couldn't make it home, so he turned around and raced back for 3rd base. On the way back, he got into a terrible fight with the stubs that were left of a dead bush right in the middle of his path. I think the bush won that fight. He came inside covered in blood and scared me to death.
After briefly cleaning it off of him, it was apparent to me that stitches were probably necessary. So, I called Nick. He came home. Then, Tyler and I went to the doctor's office. The rest can be seen in the pictures! He was in a lot of pain and the doctor told us that we were very lucky that his eye was not damaged. Obviously, it wasn't just luck. If you look at the pictures, you can see that there isn't a good explanation for his eye being undamaged! Thank heaven for tender mercies and guardian angels!!
He ended up with stitches and a very sore face.
