L’s Rite of Passage

I think it may be a rite of passage for every kid (at least it is for my kids) to get their first black eye before turning two. Lincoln finally got his first yesterday, Riley got her first of many at 20 months too. Riley decided that instead of handing him a toy from across the room that she’d throw it to him while yelling “catch, Lincoln”. She miss calculated and it hit him right in the eye. I saw it all go down and it definitely went in slow motion, but there was nothing I could do. He cried, but like the tough little guy he is, he shook it off quickly.

And…he’s still smiling!
