Preparing for High School Graduation

This is my Min and she is having her Graduation Ceremonies on Friday.  This is not what you want your eye to look like five days before Grad!!!Wonder what colour it will be by Friday?  Gonna have to get creative with the makeup!!!  Although right now it kinda matches her red Grad dress!
I had two girls in a softball tournament on Saturday.  In the final game, Min (on the pitcher’s mound) took a line drive to the face.  Luckily it hit her glove first so it got slowed down before it hit her eye.  It’s not very pleasant to be watching and suddenly see your child bent over, holding her face, staggering around in pain.  The coaches of both team and the ump went running over to tend to her.  She was still on her feet though, and I was very relieved not to see any blood when she took her hands away from her face.  Ice was quickly produced and while she iced her eye, the coaches stood around her talking and laughing – giving her time to see how she was doing, making sure she wasn’t going to keel over or anything.  She switched spots with first base and a coach stayed near her – just in case!  But was able to play the last few innings.  She said she felt fine – no headache or anything – but said it was really weird to be able to see her eyelid protruding from the swelling.  This picture was taken about 18 hours after the hit – the swelling is gone and now it’s just the lovely red.
As for Grad, here’s a sneak peek! 
That’s all you get right now!  I’m on the decorating committee and will be spending the next four days transforming the gymnasium into something representing the theme they chose:  “Our Time to Shine” (Hey – that theme works great for Min with her “shiner”!)
Stay tuned because you know I’ll eventually be posting pictures!!!
