When it rains it pours!

As I write, Nicholas is in my bed next to me burning up with a fever...This morning he crawled from his bed to the floor...then a few feet further on the floor, then I put him in my bed and he hasn't left my bed once...it's now 7 pm. Poor little guy! He won't eat, but he sips apple juice when I offer it.

Yesterday we went to a birthday party at a roller skating rink. Not 10 minutes after we arrived Elisabeth came to tell me that daddy might have broken his wrist! I took him to insta-care, and they said they don't see a break but they have to send the x-ray to a specialist...So it's probably a sprain...very painful...he never complains about pain...EVER... but his face was ghostly white and he was having some symptoms of shock...so we convinced him to go to the doc.

Just two days before that we had gone Ice skating with our homeschool friends. Elisabeth was doing great, and Adam too. Then Elisabeth fell right on her face...no hands out, no knees , just face! She has quite the shiner. She didn't cry when she fell...but as it started looking worse and worse the tears of embarassment did come. Jon told her to tell people "You should see the other guy!" After he hurt his wrist I said "So are you the other guy?" =)

Here's a picture of our two wounded skaters. We will not be skating again in the very near future! =)
