A Vist to Aunt Laddice

Gran and Kiki took the boys one day to visit Aunt Laddice in Allendale. They have not been there in quite a while. Jack loves Aunt Laddice and asks about her all of the time. It is very sweet. The day went pretty well it seems until there was a little accident. Kiki took the boys outside to play after lunch and Jack pushed Ben down. Ben fell down backwards and hit his head on the one rock in the immediate area. He had a little puncture wound in the back of his head, but he was ok. I think Kiki was super freaked out, especially with all of the blood that comes from a head wound! He ended up being fine, but I think it scared everyone involved. I am glad I was not there!! I might have really flipped out! Jack was very worried about his brother. Mom called me at work and told me all about what happened. When I got home I wanted to ask Jack about it just to see what he would say. I asked him if had a good time visiting Aunt Laddice. The conversation went a little something like this:

J: Ben hurt his head.

L: How did Ben hurt his head?

J: I pushed him

L: Is that a nice thing to do?

J: No, I tell Ben I sorry.

I couldn't help but chuckle. You could see the guilt on his poor little face. We had the whole conversation about being nice to our brother, etc, etc. About five minutes later they were both wrestling on the floor. I am ready to have my suite at the emergency room!!!

The investigators...very curious about everything.

Prior to the head injury. He found a pretty flower.

He can look like a sweet little angel. He can also be a sweet little angel when he wants to be. This picture melts my heart though. Look at those eyelashes!
