Bad Parents AWARD





So over a week ago Marissa jumped off a bench at Costcos food court and some how got her arm stuck in the cart when she did it. She cried for a little while and then acted fine. Steve looked at it and we both thought it was fine. Over the last couple days she has been crying when she lands on it, or puts a lot of pressure on it. You know the cry, like she was still in a lot of pain. Well I called Steve today and told him I made an appointment. When we got to the doctors The NP had her giving her high five, put pressure on it and Marissa just sat there and laughed. She gave me an order to get an X-ray so RELUCTANTLY I did. Only because she didn't act like anything hurt when the NP checked her out. Sure enough it is broken just below the elbow. And still bad ashamed to say nine days later. Boy do we deserve the Bad Parent Award. With kids you never know. She is definitly our accident prone child.
