Can you believe that with three boys this is our first bona-fide, requires a cast and everything, broken bone? G-man was playing with some kids while at Cole's football practice last night when he tripped and fell in a wierd position. We debated taking him to the E.R., but in the end decided to give him Motrin and an ice pack and put him to bed and see how he felt in the morning. He fell asleep quickly, but woke up at 10:00 or so crying, so we decided to take him to the hospital then.
Why is it that it takes 4 hours to talk to a couple of nurses, get an x-ray, see a nurse practictioner and then get a splint? And they weren't busy at all! I'll never understand. Oh well...We were home in bed by 2:00 am, and Grant was up at 7:00. He was excited about staying home and watching cartoons (Kindergarten just takes away all your t.v. time) and getting a green cast (It's huge!) which he got this afternoon at the Ortho's office. He's bummed that he has to wait a whole day before anyone can sign it, but come Friday, y'all better have a Sharpie handy when you see him!

We are sorry for the injury and amazed that ya'll have made it this long without a broken bone.
Hope we get a chance to sign your cast Grant!
Love Amy and Garrett
