Concussion

We went to the park at the rec center last night, to the big
wooden play scape. We took the scooter, the box
kite, remote control cars. Fun times. Royanne saw
Evan and Miss Becky. We all stopped to visit, the
time to leave put off for more play and conversation,
only to have an accident! Royanne was running, looking
into the sun and ran right into a support board, a 1 X 4.
I didn't know what had happened, due to the sun's
interference, until I saw her feet flying up in the
air, slow motion. (It was just like the time Liam pushed
her down the stairs, just to see what would happen,
he said. BOYS!)

She cried really hard and loud but was also worried about
having to go pee-pee. Once home and settled, (but not
bathed due to wanting to keep her from getting a
second wind), we cuddled and watched tv. She kept
asking why the room was jumping. A call to the nurse
told us she probably had a concussion. I checked her
pupils, everything was A-ok.

Bruce and I took turns checking on her,
unbeknownst to the other: it's a miracle she was awake at 7:30.
She probably got woken up 6-8 times!
