Yes, mom goes away for the day and comes home to this.... Brock and Aimee have made their way down the street to the Ice Cream Truck, the chimes of the old music playing in the distance was beckoning them. A nice neighbor friend offers to buy all of the kids on the street (who happened to go along with Brock and Aimee) a nice cold popsicle on such a lovely day. Jason shows up just in time to see Aimee with a popsicle stuck to her tongue, crying in horror as she can't get it off. As Jason is calming Aimee down and trying his darndest to get it off, our neighbor comments about Brocks face, Jason turns to see....
Yes, that is Brock, not with lovely cherry popsicle melting on his face, but with blood from his torn lips and tongue after sticking a deep freezed popsicle in his mouth and not knowing what to do when it stuck, he just yanked on it and pulled it out. Oweeeee, yes that is the difference between tough boys and pretty little girls. The girls will scream and the boys will take care of the situation and not complain.
This next story will explain the black eye that Brock has in that first pic, and it is already two days old, in the second pic it is a week old. All four of our kids went out to play quickly after finishing dinner on a lovely Friday night. Jason and I were left to clear the table and then go out to play with them for a bit. The only thing is, that after only maybe 5 minutes we heard screaming, again it was Aimee who had fallen off her scooter and scraped her knee. As I was bandaging it, I heard more crying coming from someone outside. In the door walks Ashley with Brock. Ashley is crying nearly as hard a Brock as she tells me, that the reason Brocks eye is purple and looks like it is about to pop is because she ran into him with her bike and her handle hit him in the eye. Complete accident, and needless to say, after Aimme saw Brocks eye that quickly calmed her down, she realized there was someone who was probably in more pain then her. All Brock had to say about the whole thing was, "I'n alright mommy,"
