The Cast

On Wednesday Nik got a cast...

He was really excited to get it signed so we stopped at the craft store and bought a silver Sharpie.

On Thursday was Nik's first day back at school since he broke his elbow and he was nervous. I drove him in so I could talk to the nurse and his teacher -- the first person we ran into was the school nurse and she made him feel comfortable. His teacher and classmates were very sweet so he had a good day. His classmates were funny. When he explained how he broke his arm three of them said, "That's why MY mom won't let ME play on the stairs!"

The cast is much more comfortable than the sling so for now he is excited, but I think that will wear off pretty quickly. He has been restricted to no gym and no recess so he is spending recess in the nurse's office drawing. It is going to be a long 3 weeks...

The only good thing is that it's not in the summer with the heat and no swimming.
