On Monday, we were coming home from the park when Braden's bike caught the edge of the sidewalk and made him loose his balance and he crashed. But I didn't see it, just him on the grass with the bike laying across him (and what I didn't realize at the time was that his elbow hit the edge of the sidewalk). And the nice mom that I am (I should win mother-of-the-year for this little incident), made Braden get up and I kept telling him oh your okay. I even asked him if he could ride his bike home! What was I thinking?!!! But kids cry all the time and really when should you really take it serious! I knew it was bad when he laid on the couch, couldn't move his arm, he was drifting in and out of sleep, and it started swelling immediately. We ate dinner and then Jason took him to Instacare. They waited for almost 2 hours to even go back and then told us he needed to go to Primary Children's Hospital for surgery. Who would have guessed that he broke it that bad?!! I had no idea, but I don't know anything medical! Poor kid! Braden was most worried about missing FHE and The Voice and his BIG bowl of ice cream I promised him when he got home! Funny kid!
And this is what we've been doing the last couple days...lounging on the couch and what you can't see is the tv--on all the time!! What else can the poor little man do? It could be a rough couple weeks at school. I had him try and trace some letters with his left hand and he erased everything he did because he wanted it to be perfect! At least it's his spring break this week and he doesn't have to miss any school!
And another big event took place last night, April 4th...Braden lost his FIRST tooth. It was super loose and Jason has been bugging him the last week or so to let him pull it out. Well, Jason finally had his way and pulled it out and Braden didn't even realize it was gone.
