Mother's Day!

The day before mother's day we spent most of the day helping
Deborah move into her new home. That night Kory and I
had a church dance in our ward so the girls stayed
the at my mom's house. Then my mom brought
them home after our church. The whole time we were at

church I kept thinking I forgot something. After that we

went to Kory's parents house for dinner. The Talley

and Harris Clanalso came over along with Kory's

grandparents.We all had lunch together, about an hour

into lunch, Penny started crying. She wouldn't open her

left eye. We thought maybe she had gotten something in

it so we tried to rinse it out a few times. She still kept crying.

I would rock her to sleep

and she would sleep for a while and then wake up and start

crying again. After 3 hours of this we took her into Urgent

Care. When we got there we had to hold her down so

the doctor could put some numbing drops in her eye.

It took me. Kory and another nurse to hold her for the

doctor. Then they put some dye into her eye and we could

see a big abrasion on her eye. Some how she had cut it.

She was alot better once the numbing drops kicked in. She

was smiling at and flirting with the doctor. The sad thing

is there isn't much they can do for the pain. She was

refusing to open her eyes for the rest of the night. She

rode all the way home with the blanket over her head. She

was awake but she had her eyes closed, since she doesn't

know how to open only one. The sad thing was watching

her eat dinner. She was like a blind child. She sat with her

eye's closed the whole time. She would use her hand to

feel around her plate, when she found what she wanted

she would pick it up and eat it. Also she would say

mommy and then hold her hand out until she found me.

It was so sad to watch her hurt so much but this morning

she is doing much better. The worst part is that we have to

apply an ointment to her eye every 4 hours for the next

10 days. The hardest part is that I can't do it by myself.

So I'm gonna have to enlist some help...... luckily if we do

it then her eye should heal just fine.
