Caleb's injury

Last night, the big boys (Caleb, Connor & Chris) were doing their usual wrestling. Chris chases them around the house. Caleb and Connor tackle each other...just the normal boy stuff. Anyway, when Caleb started to put on his pjs, he noticed a huge carpet burn on his belly. Of course, he freaked out. We had to put a cold wash cloth on it. He couldn't wear his shirt because it hurt. This went on forever. I finally convinced him to go to bed around ten. At 3:00, I heard something. I walked over to the other side of the house and found Caleb (still without his shirt) sitting on Connor's bed watching Scooby doo. Of course Connor is now up with him. I asked him what in the world he was doing. He said that his "injury" was hurting and he had to get a new wash cloth. So why was in Connor's room? He couldn't find his remote (I hid it in the kitchen junk drawer) and he wanted to watch a movie. So, he had to use Connor's tv. I was not very nice about his injury and told him that if he didn't get in his bed that I was going to injure his whinny hinny. He went to bed. When I got him up this morning, his carpet burn looked awful. I felt horrible because it probably did hurt during the night. Chris felt worse when I e-mailed him that Caleb would not be going to school because he looked like he had been beat. Never fear, he made a complete recovery just in time to spend the night with KayKay.
