Broken Arm

Mac broke his right arm on Tuesday night. John Lawrence and Mac were jumping and playing on the trampoline and the next thing we knew, Mac fell out of the zipper door (yes, we have a enclosure around it) and was screaming at the top of his lungs. Mason knew right away that we should take him in. I hesitated for about 15 mins and decided when I heard him say just hold my arm for me it was time to go to Urgent Care. He cracked the bone right above his elbow. The doctor said it was a very common place for his age to have a break and it should heal relatively fast.

John Lawrence was super excited about the drama and felt like an expert on the subject. He wanted to see what was going on and wanted to hear everything. He was telling whoever would listen that he broke his arm too when he was younger (read about that here). The picture of JL shows the excitement he felt. He was very sweet to Mac and could not have been a better big brother. Mac slept very well the first night and handled it all very well.
