Poor sweet Chloe

Last night, just like every other Sunday, we went to my parents house. I love going over there. They are so helpful with the kids especially when Ryan is still in his church meetings. Last night ended a little on the bad side though. While walking out the door to go home, Braxton took a ball away from Chloe. Instinctively, Ryan reached to grab the ball from Braxton so he could give it back to Chloe. Well, in doing so, Ryans laptop bag swung around and smacked Chloe in the back, pushing her down the 3 cement stairs. She did a couple of rolls before stopping. I was at the car putting Peyton in, when I heard Ryan ALMOST swear. I knew something had happened, but by the time I looked up to see she just looked like she tripped while walking, as usual. So I hurried and buckled Peyton up to go give Chloe a hug. A kiss usually fixes everything with her, so I thought I could fix it. Oh how wrong I was. Poor sweet Chloe has a huge goose egg just above her eye. I panicked and almost took her in to the doctor. It had started to swell so fast and was immediately black and blue. I knew she was bleeding under her skin. After about 5 minutes she calmed down and I called the doctor to ask what he thought I should do. He told me because she didn't lose consciousness and she could still open her eye, not to worry unless she starts throwing up. Luckily, that still hasn't happened. Ryan feels so bad. When asked how she fell, Chloe responds with, "Daddy, push me." Poor guy, he was just trying to avoid a fight between the kids. Chloe's eye still looks bad. The goose egg is gone but the blood has settled in her eyelid. She has a hard time opening her left eye. It's so sad to even look at her. It almost hurts just to see her. Well, it may be the first time, but knowing kids, it won't be her last injury.
