Let the guilt begin...

Today I managed to feel like the worst mom ever! I was holding Chase's hand, bringing him into the house, when he decided he wanted to stay outside. So, I proceeded to pick him up and carry him about 3 feet into the house so I could shut the door. In the process, I felt his wrist pop twice, and he started crying and holding his arm. Yikes! I felt SOOOO bad!

I watched him for about an hour to see if he got any better, but he continued to use his good arm to hold the sleeve of his hurt arm, kind of like a sling, while he moped around. Feeling absolutely horrible, I took him to the doctor. Lucky for me, his arm wasn't dislocated or broken, just sore. Whew! Poor little guy, though!

By the end of the evening, he started moving his hurt arm around, and started bouncing off the walls again. I'm constantly amazed at how resilient children can be! And, I have definitely learned my lesson about their fragile little arms.
