Me: Eyeballs don't just fall out Nick. (not really interested in the conversation)
Nick: An eyeball fell out in Calvin and Hobbes.
Me: Hmm. Really? (still not interested)
later that day . . .
Me: What happened to your eye Nick? (noticing he's holding a rag over it)
Nick: Nothing.
the rag is removed revealing a red-rimmed, blood-shot eye
Me: Nick, did you try to pop your eye out?
Nick: How did you know?! How did you know?! And don't say that moms just know!
Me: Look at my eyes Nick. You are the only one in the family that got my eyes. Please. Do not pop them out.
Nick: Alright. Mom, why do we need teeth?

Whoa! There is a guy in my ward who shot his eye out w/a bb gun...just like on A Christmas Story. I think he'd rather have his own eye back. Tell Nick to keep his eyes in! Great photo of the family!
You've gotta love all of the "Whys??" that we get at this age. Tell Nick I would miss his GORGEOUS eyes and his BEAUTIFUL smile!
