This is the way we are summarizing our day yesterday!  It’s never good when you see the school phone number pop up on your cell phone in the middle of the day.  Especially when it’s the school nurse.  After a lengthy conversation with Bev (the nurse) I discovered that Reece was playing tag on the playground and was pushed down hard to the concrete with nothing to break her fall (her hands were in her pockets).  Well, actually her face broke her fall!  She had a giant goose-egg on her forehead, a bloody, scraped up,and swollen nose and a crowd of people around her worried, including the principal.  She passed all the neurological tests and it appears her nose isn’t broken.  Wow, that is NOT a fun day on the playground!  This little gal is brave and tough because she made it through the rest of the school day, 2 hours of gymnastics training, and watching her brother’s futsal game. Speaking of Futsal game, Jake took a hard ball to the face and ended up with a bit of a shiner.  He’s tough too because he kept playing like a champ.  There’s no stopping this guy in the heat of game!  And now it seems the only thing Reece is worried about is how she is going to look in pictures at my sisters birthday party this weekend.  She said she could just hide it with a bow…whoa where can we find a bow the size of her entire face!?  If anyone can pull off a scraped up face, it’s you Reecie Pie!

To cheer up this little cutie, Brian is back in town and surprised her by bringing her Subway for lunch (her favorite!).  We told Brian he is no longer allowed to do selfies because he’s not good at it but you can’t resist this toothless grin!  Reece has managed to lose two teeth in the last week (unrelated to the playground incident)!

And this has nothing to do with anything except that it relates to Reece and Jennifer happened to text this photo to me today.   I cannot resist putting this in…she took this picture of Reece several years ago when Brian and I were out of town.  They actually let her dress this way and went out in public!!  Can you believe this!?  Do we need to put something in the babysitting plan that prohibits this kind of attire!?  ha!
