Cast in red

Sierra fell on the playground and hurt her arm several weeks ago.  The X-ray from the day of  the injury didn't show a fracture, but we went back to the ER today and sure enough, she does have a fracture in her elbow.  She has been in and out of her sling for the past two weeks and even was doing her cursive handwriting pages and playing her cello, but this afternoon she got a (bright red) cast on, so that's going to slow her down for awhile.  She's a pretty good sport about it, but bummed she won't be able to swim, as they just reopened the Colfax pool this very week after a long renovation.
