Oops.

This was meant to be on the end of the previous post, but the edit post window goes a bit bunny boiler on me on occasion.

So here you are, all rock and roll and grown up. My what big feet you have. You actually look like a slightly shrunken version of Michelle Williams (she's an actor, google* her). For a long while you have been struggling with my glasses. You call them 'Glashes'. I'm not sure if your head has grown or if it's just good technique, but the glasses are staying on your face 90% of the time now. Most of the other time it's because you're trying to put them on upside down. I've started to notice that the only time you drop them is when you're standing on a rough surface, like gravel, brushed concrete or Sand Paper. It's ok, they've lasted quite a while. almost 2 years.  That's some sort of record for dad.

Ok anyways, you look great.





This video always makes me laugh.  hmm no. no video. Blogger is playing up. I'll come back and edit it in later. ok I think It's sorted out now.  nope. still not.



So after all that we decided we'd head into town for an hour or so. Just to get out and have an adventure. The trains were very full and we both had to stand up. Before long you weren't happy being held and wanted to be let down to stand on your own two feet. I held your hand but sure enough you fell over a few times as the train bumped along the tracks. We we're just about at our last stop when you fell over again and I tried to stop you from hitting the floor. I felt a terrible little pop and you straight away let out a big sob.

You poor thing you cradled your arm close to your body and it was obvious straight away that something had popped out of place. You were very brave though and only cried when it got bumped. We hopped off the train and you were distracted by all the people around us.  I called mum who came and rescued us. Good mum. As we walked to where mum had parked her car, you snuggled into me and i wrapped you up in both arms. The occasional little sob was all I heard out of you as I carried you 4 or 5 blocks to where mum had the car.

Mum sat in the back of the car with you while I drove us all to the Emergency Department at the Children's hospital. When we pulled up into the drive you looked up and said "Hello Doctors". Poor thing, you've been here a few times before. Mum took you in while I parked the car and by the time I got back (5 minutes) You had already been fixed! The nurse behind the desk popped your elbow back into place and when I came in you were running around in circles with a big smile on your face and your arms in the air. Miracle recovery!

I was very glad you were fixed.

*Google or probably plug into the global synapse network that you can also teleport to the colony on Mars with or whatever your using by the time you read this.
