Round 2

Oh good - another Uber-Mommy story for you...

Dance class has a little room wher the Mom's can watch the kids through a 2-way mirror. Before class yesterday, all the little girls were 'hiding' from the teacher in there. Of course, Landry and Megan were the ring-leaders for this game. For some reason Megan left the little room and Landry went to close the door behind her so the teacher wouldn't see them -- well, Megan had just put her finger in the hinged side of the door frame. Don't ask me why.

Of course it was squished, and it looked awful. A deep, red crease at the first knuckle that depressed the finger to about 1/2 or 1/4 of it's regular diameter - kinda scary, really gross. I rushed her to the doctor, got the xrays, the splint, etc.... got the results this morning. It's broken. Of course.

Soccer has had one game this season and now we are out for 3 games --- again. Remember the broken arm from last season? Same story. And nobody is going to believe I'm not beating the crap outta this kid. Thoughts don't count. Really. I checked.

Right now we are off to see if there is some kind of splint that can be glued/melded/sautered/welded to her finger so she can't take it off and play with it. Wish me luck.
