18 years ago we had an unfortunate July 4th incident with Son A (Michael). After a sparkler accidentally found his cornea and scratched it, we had an ER trip and some pain, but a happy boy the next morning. What are the chances of that happening again?
Fast forward to this past weekend and Son B (Andrew) was happily playing with a stick, fighting invisible bad guys, when he ran in the back door crying. I knew enough from our last incident that an ER trip was in our future, so................Where else does one enjoy spending a Friday night? Honestly, its a pretty interesting place to people watch. We got some great care, had a good night's sleep, sported an eye patch and glasses all weekend to keep out the light - and today he's good as new!
These boys are two peas in a pod (other than one being blessed with artistic talent and one, not so much).

SO sorry.. but kinda worth the shot of him lookin' like a 14-year-old in his dark shades just chillax'in.
hope his eye is ok, that is too cute that you have matching pictures. love the little one of michael, what a cutie!
Yikes! Way to handle crazy little boy trips to the ER like a pro. Silly boys. I am glad he is not permanent with that eye patch, though he could probably make it look pretty cool.
What are the chances? (I've learned it's not smart to ask that, btw.) That sounds incredibly uncomfortable. They really are like twins, separated by a lot of years:) So glad he will get to keep that eye, even if he does look tough.
ps congrates to your beautiful girl! Thanks for the announcement:) She is so, so lovely...and how did all that time pass so quickly, huh? We're talking legal adulthood!
