Broken Bones Are No Joke.

Reese slipped off the bars at school and fell hard on her arm. It's buckled and crazy looking under that splint. She's on her way with Aaron to get X-rays now. They stopped by the house to drop off Quincy and Corbin first and I got to see her for a minute.  She's nervous and in pain and I ache that I can't kiss this one better and magically take her pain away. She's in good hands with Aaron, but I still wish I could just scoop her up and hold her in my lap at the hospital.
Results are in: broken. 
There is a buckle fracture in her (left arm) radius near her wrist. 
Reese was very brave while the nurse wrapped her in a soft cast. 
She's not super excited about needing a hard cast, or taking a little break from piano, though. And we just started swimming lessons yesterday. Bummertown. 


Here is the card from her classmates.
