Another Boo Boo!
The last few weeks have been rough in the mothering department. Besides the incident with the potato and knife, we added on the broken bones! We were shopping at the mall when you tripped and fell. I was across the room and you were with Daddy. I heard a scream and instantly knew it was yours. I can tell you that my heart rate was so fast that I swear it was going to beat right out of my chest. I knew that you were in such pain and there was nothing I could do about it.
Before I had always been able to sing you a sing, kiss it, or love it away, but not these boo boos. I would have done anything to take your pain myself, but I knew that I couldn't. We got you to the Guest Services station and they called security. Security got there with the first aid equipment, but it was soon that we realized that you would need x-rays so they called a squad. Earlier that day you said you wanted to ride in an ambulence, but I know that that was not what you had in mind.
I got to ride with you to the hospital with Daddy following close behind. I tried hard to keep you busy and your mind off of the pain by pointing out all of the doors, lights, and equipment in the ambulence. While it helped some, you were also very scared. I wish that I could have found away to take that feeling away. You were a trooper though! I was so proud of you.
You were still scared and hurting when we pulled into the hospital, but luckily they gave you some motrin right away and that helped alot. You even fell asleep and slept through your x-rays!
Well, sure enough, you had broken both of the bones in your right wrist. I truly didn't think it was that bad, and man did I feel guilty for thinking that! It isn't fun being in a cast, but the best thing was that you got to pick the color. It was really neat to see you look at the color swatches and almost immediately yelling out GREEN! You wouldn't even look at the others, you wanted GREEN, so you got green.
When we got home Mommy and Daddy wanted to sign your cast but you would have nothing to do with it! It was quite funny, especially when your Daddy was finally able to write on it. You wanted it OFF, and to tell the truth, Mommy did too. Your silly Daddy wrote, "Broken Arm Sexy" across it. I was so embarrassed, but that is your Daddy!
Today I was finally able to write on it, and of course you wanted that off as well. I was bound and determined to Write that I loved you on the cast! I know, Mommies are bad sometimes aren't they?
Well, it looks like you will only need a few more weeks in the cast. I sure hope we are able to get it off! Every night when I put your Jammies on you tell me "Don't take it off Mommy!" What a silly little man you are, but you are MY silly little man and I love you VERY much!
