What did you hurt, do you need to go to the doctor?! I asked trying not to sound too panicked.
I don't know, it's my ankle, he said, not being able to hold his sobs in any longer.
I will be right there!!
I ran into the school and into the nurses office as fast as I could. Jaden lay on the table, Mrs. Dufrense had ice packs on his ankle, Mr. Cottom stood at his head trying to make him laugh, and Mrs. Gault was at his side making sure he was going to be okay.
He had calmed down by the time I ran in, but there is something about having the comfort of your mom being there when you are sick or hurt and as soon as I started talking to him he started crying with relief!
Luckily he just has a sprained ankle playing basketball! I helped him to the car and asked him if he was going to be alright. His response of "Kenna can't play this weekend, because her grandma is in town" told me that he would be JUST FINE!
Bailia came home from gymnastics yesterday with the BIGGEST smile on her face! She had got her first rip on her hand while perfecting her kip! Her coach told her that having a rip officially makes her a REAL gymnast!
She, of course, had to have her hand taped for school today so it "wouldn't hurt while she played basketball at recess."
Really a taped hand usually gets people to notice the injury. When she came home from school I asked how her day went, she said in disbelief that only ONE person asked me what happened to my hand!
