On Wednesday, Drew came home with his very first black eye, ( not bad for a kid as wild and crazy as Drew, after stitches and concussions when he was little, to make it to 12 witout a black eye is surprising).
They were playing football at recess and things got a little out of hand. They are supposed to play 2 hand touch, but it turned into more. Drew thinks that a boys jaw hit him in the eye, but he is not sure. There were several injuries and some crying, so needless to say football has now been taken away from the 6th grade boys for the rest of the year. It is actually a blessing in disguise for me, because that seems like when Drew would get in the most trouble at school. He loves the sport and cannot play without going "all out". In fact, Drew came home yesterday, surprised that he had not been called down to the office to meet with the principal. He said that everytime the overhead came on he was fully prepared to hear his name called with a "come to the principals office please" attached.....I don't know if that is something I should be blogging or not, oh well. Just another day in the life of ours.
Just a side note, the picture really does not do the eye justice, too bad!!

Awwwww, Jenn. That's funny! He is a manly boy for sure. He looks cool with a black eye. Don't tell him I said that.
Ouch, what a score, what about the other eye. Just kidding. Hey how are you? Missed you at Jana's.
