Katelynn

Well, our week has started out with a bang. Joseph was closing the door to the car this morning and Katelynn's fingers were shut in the door. She was screaming and Jason started saying oh oh oh pretty loud (thank goodness nobody was nearby, I still am laughing about his reaction as I type). Luckily the door wasn't locked yet so Jason was able to open it right away. Joseph felt horrible but I let him know it was an accident and that sister would be ok. We went and got her some ice and asked a nurse at church what she thought. She didn't think it looked broken and that the best thing we could do is put ice on it. Jason took Katelynn home to give her a pain reliever and keep ice on it until after church when they came back to pick us up. Katelynn was in a much better mood by now but she was still favoring her hurt hand. We kept asking her if she could bend it or straighten her finger but she never wanted to. Jason finally bribed her with animal crackers if she would make a fist with both hands, she did immediately. Jason was happy that her finger didn't look broken. It is still pretty swollen compared to her other fingers but it should go down soon and there is only a small area of black and blue at her first joint. She is using her hand more as time passes and with no time she will be back to normal.
