Well, today started off pretty fun. We got up and had some breakfast before getting ready for a big day out on the town. The first stop was Toys R Us, where we got a bunch of presents for my friends and even a few surprises for me. Then, we hit Ganny and Poppa’s house for a change and a nap. When I got up, we went right over to Don Pablos and I learned how to say “tortilla”!
After lunch, we went to the mall. Mommy was shopping while Daddy and I played on the indoor playground. And, that is when it happened…
I was having such a good time running and playing and sliding and reading and climbing. I saw a girl climb up on the big ball and jump off, so I took my turn. By the time I was up on top of the ball, I saw Daddy stumbling towards me, so I knew I had to act fast. I jumped for the ground just as he got there, but my landing wasn’t a 10.0. I hurt my knee pretty bad and Daddy knew right away that something wasn’t right. He scooped me up, got Mommy, and we hit the car. We drove as fast as we could to the hospital because I had an owie on my knee. They took some pictures and told me that I broke my tibia. They wrapped it all up and now it sticks straight out!
When I came out of the Emergency Room, the whole crew was there for me. Granny, Poppa, Carrie, Manata, Mema, Pepa, TC, and my best friend…Wendy’s french fries. I scarfed them down while everyone made over me, and then we headed for home.
Whew, what a crazy day. I hit my pillow hard tonight…having an owie on my knee really took it out of me.
Thanks to everyone that came to see my knee. You made me feel a lot better by knowing that soooo many people love me and care about my knee.
