A fun afternoon ?!

Yesterday afternoon was so beautiful....sunny, 82°...so the girls and I went to the park. We were there about 10 minutes when J decided to try the monkey bars. She was hanging and swinging, trying to get enough momentum to reach for the next bar, when she dropped, and landed on her arms instead of her legs. She now has two compression fractures in her left arm. Curt took her to Med Express last night and they splinted it, and I'm still waiting for the orthopedic doctor's office to open so I can get her scheduled there.

She is all worked up; she DID NOT want to go to school until she was healed up (3 weeks). "B can bring home all my work," she sobbed last night. This morning, though, she had a new plan. "I'm starting half days. You pick me up at lunchtime." B is all excited to be her helper, so I'm hoping that all goes well today. I'll keep you posted.
