Cailin and the Broken Clavicle

Cailin was riding her Big Wheel down the driveway and hit the garbage can. It tossed her off her bike and on to the ground. She came in the house crying and laid down on the couch. She told me her neck hurt and since she had just awaken from a nap, I thought she had slept wrong. Poor thing, laid on the couch for 3 long days before I took her to the doctor. We found out she broke her clavicle. My heart broke. I couldn't believe she had broken her clavicle. I learned a big lesson this time- if your kids act differently; tune in and listen.
I tell you what: kids are resilient little folks. She never complained of pain unless we touched that arm. She never wore the sling past the first couple of days and since the pediatrician said it was for comfort only, we didn't make her.
Lately, this is the smile I get when I pull out the camera.
