Hopefully the first and last....

Once upon a time there was a cute 3 year old little girl who loved life, friends, and running. Listening to mommy and daddy sometimes fell at the bottom of the list.
One day when church was over, the little girl was running out to our car. She had a little friend that was running with her and they were laughing and giggling all the way. Mommy said "Emmy, please stop running. I don't want you to fall...." Before the final words were out of Mommy's mouth, the little girl fell and started screaming.

The next day we found ourselves at the hospital having an arm x-rayed.

Two days later we did this:


You can tell she's really struggling about this can't you?

With our favorite pediatrician, Dr. Jeff.

Love that purple cast Emmy!
Unfortunately, I'm not sure she learned much of a lesson about obeying. She thinks her cast is the coolest thing ever. It comes off this week and she's already in tears because "I'm going to miss my best friend!"

I have to hand it to her - no matter how much pain she was in (and she was in a lot) she never complained. Only smiles from this girl!
