Progression of a Black Eye

On Saturday night Clark and another boy bonked heads while jumping in one of those blow up bouncers. Within seconds the corner of his eye was a huge bump just like in the cartoons. By Sunday morning the bump had spread out more, but he could still open his eye. Monday he couldn't open his eye all day and it turned even more purple by Tuesday. Luckily he hasn't been in any pain and is sleeping well and playing like usual. So here are a few pictures to show the progression of a black eye. Someone told me the third day is the worst, so hopefully it will start to get better soon. We'll see how it looks when it starts turning green and yellow!

It's funny too because at church on Sunday he got lots of attention with people asking what happened and telling him how tough he was. He loved it! Monday he was a little more annoyed, probably since he couldn't even open his eye. When we were at the park, some older girls kept riding their bikes past us and whispering. It was funny to see how people we didn't know would whisper and stare, but not say anything. Then after school some neighbors came over just to get a good look at what eveyone has been talking about. It's definitely the worst black eye I have ever seen! Funny thing is, the kid he bonked heads with was fine!
