Caleb's Puck to the Melon

A little blurry...but here's right after he was hit

Caleb today...It's a little green still but no bump!

Both boys have been playing roller hockey over the past few months and really love every minute of it! We have endured floor burns and blisters and Caleb running into the wall 3 weeks ago when he marked up his chin, but never any real battle scars until now. Two Saturdays ago Caleb stopped a puck with his head. Yes Jerilynn he had a helmet on however not one that had a cage on it and the puck hit just below where the helmet stopped. Of course it looked horrible but he didn't cry. I think he was a little dazed and didn't really know what was going on for a minute, but the swelling went down within a few hours and now he's left with a nice looking bruise that is several different colors. Doesn't stuff like this always happen before pictures? Well picture day at school of course was the following Tuesday....can you say retakes!
