All about kids again

After being there today for C's gymnastics and going back tomorrow for Av's gymnastics we were there tonight too. Av had a school event there. It was super fun and she had a great time playing with her friends. I say it all the time but I'm so thankful that she is soooo well liked!!! She was very excited to see a few of her friends. Anyway they have a rope swing the drops into a foam block pit. Super fun. Both C and Av do it all the time. Last night though the small metal part of the swing that you kind of sit on came back and got Av in the eye. I didn't even know it happened until she came up to me to thank me for bring her there. I noticed a small cut above her eye. I asked what happened thinking it happened at school. She told me and it was pretty much then that she broke down. It hurt. Her eye was starting to swell up. So we went and got ice and sat for a bit. She was crying and saying she wanted to go home. Kind of like she did at the roller skating event. I knew she was hurt but she was sitting on my lap calmly and the other 2 were having fun. We paid to get them all in there and I didn't want to teach Av we just leave like that. She was mad and cried for a bit. I just told her we could sit there as long as she wanted and we would leave soon but not yet. I know she was tired and I know it was a long day for her but when she is the one that insists we go to events like that, then when we get there we stay. I am proud of her bc she did finally decided she wanted to go have more fun and that's just what she did. Later we noticed though that a big chunk of her eye lashes were gone. Poor thing. My heart still breaks over that, really must have hurt. She is tough!!
