Our Natalie is one tough little kid. She broke her radius and her ulna (both arm bones) a week ago today. Friday night she tripped on the edge of the slide and landed on her arm funny. Natalie didn't cry excessively when it happened... just wanted to be held. She went all weekend with only a splint to immobilize it but never let the pain slow her down any. (Although, I think it hurt at night because she kept waking up.) Her d
ad left for a business trip on Sunday (which always bums her out), and Aunt Jackie (who has been staying with us while our parents are in Germany) left for basketball camp on Friday. Natalie's tough facade finally crumbled on Friday morning when we dropped Jackie off. Friday was a hard day for us... you know the kind when they weep over anything and everything that happens. Needless to say, Dad came home Friday night and that made everything better again. If you could see her face to face, she would hold up her arm and say, "I have a purple cast on my big, big ouee!"

Jonathan was happy to see a picture of you, Natalie, and very interested in your cast! Yesterday his toy frog had to have a purple cast on her foot! :) Be careful!
Love Uncle Richard, Auntie Julie and Jonathan
