the shiner: day 2

It looks better today, right? I suppose we’re going to have a whole week or more of watching the interesting stages of Mimi’s nasty black eye. I just hope it will be mostly healed before our trip to CO. I’d hate for Mimi to associate the trip with her shiner.

The bump is less pronounced. Perhaps you could smear a little purple eyeshadow on the other eye for balance? Just wait til the greenish yellow phase of bruising–so pretty! (not)

Has she said anything about it when she looks in the mirror? I agree with Sara, the greeish-yellow phase is the best.

Oh, I know, the green/yellow stage is such a fabulous look. Maybe I’ll pull out all her outfits with those colors to help bring out her eye.
