Ouch!

Well, for Family Night on June 29th , we decided to go play baseball. As Tyler and Aly were walking out to the field, Tyler picks up his ball, throws it up in the air, and swings, hitting Aly who was 2 steps behind him. It all happened so quickly that I couldn't believe my eyes, but the sound it produced made me sick to my stomach. I was behind the kids and I was just so terrified that he had hit her nose or temple. Thankfully he hit her in a pretty sturdy place. but it swelled up to about a half golf ball size.


This is the morning after it happened, June 30th. The swelling on the eyebrow has gone into her eye lid. She was very excited that she could open her eye just a little. Casey reminded her that "at least she still had one good eye." Tyler was just mortified when it happened. He still feels just awful. Aly knew it was an accident and hasn't held it against him. She is very forgiving and when people ask what happened she is very honest but kind about the whole thing.
