A fight with a frisbee and a messy desk

On Sunday night Brendan and Benji went outside to play frisbee. They had only been outside for about 15 minutes when Benji comes in crying. I ran down stairs to see what had happened and this (after washing off the blood) is what I saw. The frisbee had hit Benji in the eye and cut it. Needless to say it is black and blue now. If you know anything about Benji he thinks that having a black eye is pretty cool.

This is the day after. Still a little swollen.

This morning I hollered downstairs for the kids to get in the van so we could get to school on time. I came down the stairs to this!! I asked Brendan what it was and he said that they cleaned out their desks at school. It is a wonder how all of this stuff even fit in his desk let alone his backpack to bring it all home. I was looking through the pile this afternoon and just had to smile. I found tests and assignments that had been graded, all with pretty good scores, so I don't think he was ashmed to show them to me. But I now know why I he hasn't been bringing anything home. It was all in his desk!!! Love you Bren.
