Sticks and Stones and the biggest kid in 1st grade!

Seriously two posts in a row, its a record! Anyway I had to post the latest at the Todd house! Last Friday my friend was picking up my kids from school and called me to tell me that Luke had been hurt and she was on her way to bring him home. I met her in the drive way and Luke was crying really hard. He normally doesnt get to worked up when he is hurt unless it is really bad. So he went on to tell me that he was playing at recess when "the biggest kid in the 1st grade pushed him down". He did add that it was a accident but he fell and hurt his arm. So we jumped in the car and headed to the insta care where it was apparently the place to be that day. It was packed full of hacking coughing people, people going into shock from injuries and to top it off a man walked in that cut his leg open with a chain saw (would you really go to the insta care for that). Anyways after a two hour wait and probably catching every nasty sickness going around right now we got Lukes arm x-rayed and it was officially broken. He has a "buckle fracture" just above his wrist. He was really tough and let them wrap it up and they said they couldnt cast it until the swelling went down. So he went home all bandaged up with a sling and all. Who would have thought a broken arm would be so cool, but when we got home his wonderful friends all greeted him with balloons and candy. After that all the kids wanted broken arms. Anyway he finally got the real cast today and went back to school to show it off. He was a little disappointed at how small the cast was. He said he wasnt sure how he was going to fit all the signatures of his friends on such a small cast. He was right, he came home with a whole lot of signatures. Then again 1st graders do seem to write kinda big!
