Love Hurts and if you know the rest of the words, feel free to sing along...
I arrived at school this afternoon to find Jillian in a heap on the floor crying. Now, if you know Jillian I'm sure this does not sound unusual. As I bent down to scoop her up her teacher says to me," These tears are justified." Right at that moment I saw it... A large raised lump of pinky-purple owie on her left cheek.
Her teacher proceeds to tell me that she and her boyfriend Owen were in a lover's embrace(hug) when all of a sudden they both started laughing, lost their balance and toppled to the carpet. (laughing all the way) Unfortunately, the bigger you are the harder you fall and since Jillian has got about 10-12 lbs. on Owen, she fell backwards and pulled him down on her. His forehead went straight into her cheek! Owen had a small pink bump along the top of his right brow. I asked both of them if they cried and both reported with a resounding, "NO!" Before we left school, I asked if Jillian wanted to say Good-bye to Owen and she waltzed over and gave him a HUG!
"Time to go," I said.
We were outta there and on our way home in no time.

If you can't see it very well in the pic, we'll try to post a shot from Grandpa's surprise 60th which was today! It looks worse!
Jillian,
Tia has two words for you, sweetie.
Roller Derby. I really believe that you could hold your own and teach the other team a thing or two! I've already made your outfit.

It was much worse than the pic but Jillian didn't want to talk about it much, a real champ but then she has had a lot of practice already.
With mom and dad's injuries she will need to toughen up since she seems prone to follow in their path

Granpa R saw on TV clips of kids hugging and falling. Jillian and Owen were cutting edge and didn't even know it.
Where was their video.......
