Warning

Mamas listen up and warn your children. Do not attempt to "jump rope" with a beach towel, while you are still in a wet bathing suit, on a wood floor. You just might happen to slip on the towel, fall on your knee and break your knee cap like Alexia did. You just can't make this stuff up!
We go to the pediatric ortho doc tomorrow. I can't imagine there will be anything to do for it. Hopefully there will be no exciting pictures to post. But, we will see. Meanwhile, I almost strapped her to the sofa this afternoon because she is still bouncing around - so, no, not too much pain.

Who would ever think they would have to warn their children not to do such a thing!!! Just one of those "freak" accidents, another "do not attempt this at home" thing! Hard to "clip those wings" on Alexia, isn't it? You might have a pretty splint to post on the blog, Alexia!!!! Love and kisses to your "boo-boo"!

Hope she is feeling better soon!

OUCH that sounds painful...but I'm glad it doesn't seem to be as bad as it sounds. I'm cringing though.

Aunt Betty says....ouch! Who would EVER think of that????? Alexia, I landed on my knee when I was bowling on Monday night and it hurt....not nearly as much as your fall, though. Praying for you that your knee cap will heal quickly. Will be checking to see if you post a neat splint or something to show off!

Love to all
