Boys will be Boys

How is it that boys seem to so easily find things that will hurt them? Is it just a boy thing? That's all we know around here!

Yesterday Tyler came in the house crying so hard he could barely get the words out to tell me what happened. Apparently a few neighbor boys had moved the slide from the dirt hill in the backyard to higher up where it would have a jump at the bottom on an area that is sort of terraced. Basically the bottom of the slide ended just before the top of a cinder block wall. When Tyler went down the slide, he didn't land on the dirt below. Instead, his back scraped all along the edge of the cinder block.

After I got him cleaned up, he kept telling me to "put his skin back on". Poor kid is kinda sore!
