The Tale of the Broken Arm...
*As told by Me*

There once was a girl named Brinlee who loved to play outside for recess. She would slide down slides, swing on swings and hang like a monkey from the bars. One day Brin was playing "secret agent" with some of her friends and fell from the "Spider Web" bars on the playground. She hurt her arm badly and was sent in to the secretary to wait for her mother to arrive. Her mother was on her way to lunch with her BFF and thought it would just take a minute to swing by and tell Brin she was okay and to have a great rest of the day. Now, this story gets so much more fun...
Brinlee was in a great deal of pain and could hardly wait for her mom to get there. When her mom finally arrived it was apparent that Brin would need to see a Dr. right away. Three x-rays and two Dr's offices later, she ended up with a bright pink cast and a sling.
Her older sister Cambree is convinced that Brinlee will be famous at school and isn't so sure that the attention she is receiving is that fair. How come all the cool things happen to Brin??
Cousin Jordan stopped by with treats and prizes for the poor little broken child but she shared those with her siblings...
Now you ask yourself where was Aidan during all this and what possibly could have happened to the lunch date? Well, it was a quick drive-thru window and Aidan spent the afternoon with Mic running errands. All this was happening during his 2nd day of potty training...Needless to say, this day was NOT a success. Perhaps it can wait a few more months??
Brinlee seems to be doing much better and is on the mend. But, while her arm appears to be less painful tonight, I am pretty sure her teeth are rotting out from all the treats she has acquired today! :)
