1. Don't assume that a 6 year old will be the least bit careful when playing with a large toy sword.2. Even though people say "in the blink of an eye" to mean "really really fast"... sometimes it's not fast enough.
3. Tyton can say "I'm sorry" more than 5 times per second if he fears his head might be pulled off his shoulders otherwise.
4. Pharmacists know just as much (if not more) than doctors.
5. Neosporin can be placed directly onto your eyeball.
6. Don't tell your best friend the real reason your eye hurts unless it's something cool like "I got punched" or "It's syphilis".
7. If you do tell your friend the truth and you happen to be on the phone with him so he can't see the swollen eye lids and bloodshot whites, be prepared to hear insult after insult about being a "girl" and concealing "girl parts" from all other male acquaintances.
8. It's fun to make your 6 year old feel guilty as often as possible by saying things like, "I can't believe my eye, that you stabbed, still hurts so bad" or "Man, I promise I'll NEVER hurt you as badly as you've hurt me" then laugh and say "Just kidding. It's really ok. I still love you." Then pause and say, "Or DO I?"

Cam! Your I looks so bad. I am so sorry. But poor ty! I hope number 8 was a joke he he
Oh don't you worry Anita, number 8 is right on. Cameron was the King of guilt trips until his eye was better. Thank goodness he can still see out of it, or I'm afraid Ty would be in for the long hall.
Love you Cameron.
a-hoy.
You're such a chick! I've even gone to the lengths to blow up those pics and I still can even see a problem except for some little girly tears...
Wow, that looks like it hurts. I hope your eye heals soon.
You let a six year old play with a toy sword? I see this as your own fault.
How come we needed 3 photos? Like 1 wouldn't be sufficient to see the ugly, goopy mess that is your right eye? Maybe the other angles helped bring to point your sorry story. Better luck next time. If there is a next time...
I had a kitten scratch my eyeball once. It looked like yours. However, getting scratched in the eyeball by a kitten does not even come CLOSE to the coolness of being stabbed in the eye with a sword by your son.
Ouch! I learned a couple of things from this post though. I had no clue that you could put neosporin on your eyeball! But, I absolutely agree with you that a lot of pharmacists seem to know more than some Drs! Hope your eye feels better soon.
Question: can you put Neosporin in your mouth?
Question: did you challenge him to a rematch with real swords?
You look like a pirate sans eyepatch. Yarrr matey!
That looks like fun!! How did Ty do that anyway. I would think that you would stop him first. JK!! Get "well" soon.
Ouch!! I'm glad you took pictures, otherwise nobody would know what you look like with your eye stabbed by a play sword.
I also want to know if you are going to challenge your son to a re-match with real swords? :)
oh i bet tyton felt so bad and i can totally hear you saying 'I still love you...or Do I?" That is actually kind of funny but could be scarring for the young boy!
I wouldn't feel too girlish about this one. My 2 year old kept hitting me in the face with his punch balloon last night and after the 3rd time of having my glasses jammed into my eye I popped it to teach him a lesson. He cried so I had to blow up another one but if it had been a sword I would have put it down the garbage disposal...
