Oh, things started off great. Rylee enjoyed licking a "rainbow" pancake for breakfast.
Rylee, Delaney and I had a fabulous drive to Little Rock, and then onto Oklahoma. We are visiting Miranda. I was suppose to be here to be a helper to her with her brand new baby.
Unfortunately, 4 hours after we arrived, we were here, in the ER waiting room. Isn't that the saddest little face?!
Poor kid, she was so sad and pathetic. And she's s tough cookie, so you know it was bad. We made it to the back of the ER pretty quick.
They took x-rays on a portable machine, so it was already right there in the ER. That made things quick and easy.
She got a dose of Lortab and a spiffy splint. Awesome! She has a "radial distal fracture". It is right at the end of the bone, clean through. 
Here we are, all done! 2 hours after leaving for the hospital, we were on our way home. Delaney has red lips because they gave her a popsicle for being so good. Terrific nurses, great doctor, a really good experience. Delaney was a trooper and did so well. The staff loved her so-not-funny jokes and her cheery (when not crying) smile.
And here is the culprit. Delaney was standing on the top of the slide when she toppled sideways off of it and landed on her hand. I saw her face when it happened and I knew it was bad.
We have to see the orthopedic doc and get a permanent cast soon. Delaney is hoping for a red cast!
