And she is now the proud owner of a baby blue short leg cast. I really did not think that she had enough body mass to actually break a bone, but she managed to. She was bouncing on her bed on Sunday evening (I know, bad mom, but YOU try and stop this child from bouncing – at least we have cleared all items that she could bang her head on) when she got distracted by looking for her sister and lost track of where she was on the bed. It swelled immediately, but she could stand on it, and move her foot around in all directions. We iced it, gave her some tylenol and put her to bed thinking it was just a sprain. The next morning the swelling was better, but she could not stand on it, and worse, she said when she bounced while being carried it hurt. DH was responsible for all the MD stuff on Monday. I was down with strep throat. Thank God the pain is minimal and requires tylenol only before she goes to bed. We are also thankful that the fracture was not at the growth plate, but above it. Today she returned to school. She was the belle of the class and came home with all sorts of Kindergarten signatures all over the cast. Her baby sister is a little miffed that big sis is getting this extra attention. The little one, who is usually not really cuddly, fell asleep on my lap this evening after big sis gave up the fight and was already asleep in bed. My day could not have ended on a nicer note.
