He takes it all in stride
So on Tuesday we were running a few eronds and finished our last one at the fabric store. On our way out the kids were being so cute and we were all holding hands in a row just minding our own business. Gabe was kind of skipping and then. . . a speed bump jumped out and down he went. The cry was a winded shriek and I knew something was wrong. When we got home I took off his sock and his foot was all swollen. We took him to the doctor and he ordered an x-ray. A few hours later 3 broken bones in his left foot was the verdict. He is such a trooper and never complained of pain after the first day. His main reason for crying was he didn't want to go to the doctor. He's been in a boot since Friday and today at church he walked by himself for the first time since Tuesday. I am sure impressed with the good spirits he is in.

Poor kid. What a trooper. At least he can now boot people with the brace! Hey, Jayne and I will be in Utah for Christmas so let us know if you guys want to get together. We plan on coming to Hillcrest Ward for at least one Sunday.
I was sorry to hear about Gabe's fall. What a great attitude... Way to go Gabe!
So sorry to hear about the break! That is my worst fear! How do you carry around a 5 year old? Glad his is walking on it now!
