Official Mom of Boys

I think I earned my "mom of boys"
 merit badge today.  It started out like any other normal day, a dirty house,  food everywhere and the kids still wanting more food.  I came home about 1:30 pm, did a few things and then I heard the in pain cry.  I went into the room to find Coral and Ian at the door waiting for me to open it.  Ian had a big bite mark on his cheek.  (That is a whole blog story in it's self.  So tired of the biting.)  We get everyone calmed down and they start playing with the straws.  Somehow Ian poked himself in the eye with the straw.  I usually am pretty casual about injuries but this one didn't seat well in the the stomach.  So after calling around I realized that we needed go to the doctor's, all five of us in the pooring, thundering, lightning rain.  Fortunately we were able to get into see our ever  so understanding dr.  Ian had a scratch on his eye and we are going for another dr. apt. today.  He is walking around with a patch on his eye.  And he took his treatment like a champ.  There were no tears or complaining.  And of course the other two monkeys were poking their eyes wanting a patch, too.  I love how they are so concerned with the well being of each other.  Of course there was Drew, who couldn't help but to talk to the dr and let him know everything.  I had to remind him that it is not polite to point out to everyone that we are having another child in just a short three months.
