A RIGHT OF PASSAGE
Doesn't every five year old boy have to get stitches? If so . . . . mission accomplished. Today, Kira and Keenan were at Joe's school with Joe while he was putting a desk together. They took parts of the box and made a mess. Joe gave them a broom and asked that they clean up their mess. Do they clean up their mess? No. But, Kira thought it would be a good idea to swing the broom around. The broom hit Keenan in the eye and Joe recounts that blood was everywhere. They were off to get stitches. This entire incident was harder for Kira to handle than Keenan. When I met up with Joe, Kira and Keenan, at the doctor's office. Kira was hysterical crying but Keenan was not crying at all. Kira asked me how long she was grounded. First, she has never been grounded so I was not sure why she thought she would be grounded. Second, I advised her that she is not going to be grounded because it was an accident. Kira responded "I should be grounded, I have scarred my brother for life."
The sisters giving Keenan a kiss to make him feel better.
