Oh the monkey bars!

Yesterday afternoon, we got an unexpected call from school. On Andrew's 3rd day of school, he fell from the monkey bars (on to a wood mulch surface). He was not himself so we took him home. But instead of getting better, he continued to be very much not himself so we took him to the doctor. The x-ray did not show a fracture in his bones, but the doctor said he may have a fracture in his growth plate in his left elbow. We're going to see the orthopedic surgeon on Mon as Andrew continues to be in pain and his arm is quite swollen now.
He was very proud of his splint and is doing fine. I guess God wanted him to slow down from all of his many activities...
