Kezia's Unfortunate Mishaps

Poor Kezia has always had trouble keeping herself injury free. She seems to have a knack with bumping into or tripping over things. This week alone she fell against a tree and tripped over the sidewalk. Maybe it's because she's growing so much she can't keep track of her long legs and arms. Well on Tuesday, she was dancing in her room and fell against her table. She got quite the contusion by her left eye. Thankfully she didn't hit her eye, and she's such a trooper that the tears were gone quickly.

But as I was taking a picture (for her to remember when she's 17), I thought back to the other times she's had major facial injuries. Last summer she got bitten by a spider and her whole eye swelled shut. And the year before that, she took a head dive into the metal corner round in Joel's room. Each time she cried a bit, but then quickly recovered. And she's not shy about explaining to people about what happened; as if it was an every day occurrence, which for Kezia wouldn't be a stretch to assume.

I don't know about you,but I think my girl is made of steel!

Yes - they sure do manage to bang themselves up. My girls - who are playing softball right now - were showing me their legs last night with all the bruises all over them. They are pretty durable - these kids - they get right back up and go right back out there and PLAY again!

Have a good evening - Kellan
