Yes, for those that haven't heard, Sissy broke her arm. We were at Snow Hill and she was showing off her rope (the one she made at Landis Valley). The children were using it to climb trees. Then, once the adults went into the house, the children, led by my own daughter, decided that they should climb the building instead.
It all ended very quickly. Sissy was the first to try to climb the rope that was hanging from a flat edged projection sticking out of the side of the building. As soon as she took her feet off of the ground, the rope slipped off.... and down she came.
Keep in mind that this child is taking self defense class and one of the first things that they learn is how to fall... so as NOT to break anything. Well, she stuck out her arm to break her fall and just above the wrist, the arm is what broke.
So, as you can see she is sporting a very sturdy, pink cast. She will be showing that off for the next 6 weeks or so.
And yes, we did have a conversation about Not climbing unless there is an adult available. :) I think that she has learned a great lesson here.
Now, about the picture: Sissy is helping to Spruce Up the Rabbit House. We decided that the walls will be much easier to clean if they are painted. It took a bucket of paint to cover the wall twice from ceiling to just above the floor. We will get another type of paint for the floor.
