You've Got To Be Kidding Me!

Saturday night was yet another trip to the ER. This time Todd broke his arm.


He tried to climb over the fence in the backyard so he could go play ball with Tyler. We made it over our wooden fence onto the chain link fence of the soccer field, then he fell 6ft to the ground. He must have landed with all his weight on his right arm because he fractured both bones above the wrist. He was in a lot of pain, but is feeling much better now. He even told me today that he was so lucky to have a broken arm. I think he'll get tired of it soon enough. I for one know I am tired of spending time in hospitals. Our goal is to make it through the week with no ER visits. Think we can do it? Oh, how I hope so!

My goodness! I too hope there are no more trips to the ER. If he gets a cast, I'll bet all of his friends will love signing it!

Oh no!! Glad he's o.k. now, but maybe you guys should consider building a guest house off the back of the ER....

Kole followed suit on Sunday. He was jumping on the tramp, and Spence jumped him too high. He fractured his right arm just above the wrist. He has a splint for now, but he won't keep it on. We'll be casting it on Wed. Kids!!! They keep our lives so exciting.

Give Tods' mom a hug for me. She probably needs it more than he does. Love ya!!!

So does everyone at the ER know you by name now? He was so cute as he tried to tell me, then Megan, then Alex all about his arm. I'm glad he's not in so much pain anymore.

Not your lucky month! Hope things get better with no more ER visits.
