Broken Arm!

Can you tell I can't find my camera cord that uploads pictures into my computer? I have pictures from our Wyoming/Yellowstone trip, 4th of July, swim lessons, county fair, and more, but they sit on my camera. No pictures in my posts because I've got to find the dang thing. We had a bit of trauma this weekend, but all is well. We had our first broken bone in the family. Marin fell off the neighbor's trampoline and broke both of the little bones in her forearm on Saturday night. After some crying and several hours at Instacare, the x-rays confirmed it and she got her temporary sling/cast. She was such a brave little thing and didn't cry any more until it really started hurting in the middle of the night (of course). But after that night, she's been such a tough little thing. We get her PINK cast on Thursday, we had to wait for the swelling to go down. Now I'm just trying to keep her from jumping on rocks, riding her bike, and swinging (all 3 things she showed me she is still able to do before I forbade her). I'll feel better about letting her do more when she gets a harder cast!

Oh Marin!

Conversation with Marin tonight during scripture reading:

Me: Jesus can protect people. Jesus can do anything.

Marin: That's because he's magic-- and Santa. Santa Claus and Jesus are the same age. Santa Claus is my favorite man!
