Being a Mommy hurts sometimes...

So many of you have already heard that Ethan has given me a wonderful shiner, well here's the story behind it and the pictures so far! All Wednesday morning I was trying to clean up and slowly get the boys and myself ready to have lunch and then run Eric to pre-k. I had just finished putting on my make-up and walked into our tv room because Ethan was asking to go potty! (which is going well!) So I picked him up and put him on my hip as soon as we walked into the hallway he leaned back and headbutted me right in the cheekbone. I gently layed him down on the floor (which still blows me away I didn't just drop him.)I then was seeing white then black as I walked into my dark bedroom and started freaking out. Andrew was in the bathroom asking me what was wrong; I couldn't even talk just sobs came out. After a few mins. I looked up and Ethan was still laying on the floor (where I put him) rubbing his head saying "ouchie, sorry mommy." There was a bruise immediately. On the way home from picking Eric up from pre-k later that day, I noticed white spots and blurry vision, so i went to the eye Dr. they thankfully said that nothing was damaged in the eye, but the bruise would get worse and hang around for about 5-6 weeks. I still have no idea if my cheekbone is fractured or not; they really can't do anything anyways! If my eye still hurts by this Wednesday I have been told to get it looked at. Lesson = kids heads are hard, but a mothers love runs deep
