First Broken Bone

First...and hopefully last broken bone for our family.


Mr. P fell at school in P.E. while playing touch football and broke his elbow. Ouch! He said that as soon as he fell he instantly knew it was broken. *Gag*

I was at work and didn't know anything until I sat down for lunch and checked my phone. By that time he was already at home in a sling. Luckily Cam was off work and took good care of him.

The next day I took him to the Children's hospital and they put a cast on it. He will have the cast for a month.

Which means that his cross country season was cut short. He ran one meet and did very well. Oh well, next year.

AND...basketball is coming. I'm trying hard to not be one of those sports parents that is all about sports and over the top pushing their kid. BUT....I REALLY love basketball season. So, I'm deep breathing and hoping he will be able to play.

Try-outs for his select team are this week. He's going to turn out (in his cast) and show them his stuff...by that I mean his spirit. Umpf! He can run but can't shoot or guard and get roughed up. So basically he can run and show his enthusiasm. Hoping they evaluate his skills from last season.

Besides not being able to do sports he can't practice his saxophone, or put his socks and shoes on....or bend over and pick up his stuff off the floor. Okay, that last one I'm not really buying.
