on the second day of school, i received a call from adriana's school. it sent chills throughout my whole body. no mother wants to hear, "mrs. saenz....(which seemed to be the longest pause EVER) there was accident with your daughter, and we think she broke her arm!" i don't even remember hanging up or saying good bye. i just grabbed the keys and off we went. my sweet little girl broke her arm while playing on the monkey bars!!! my sweet little monkey girl!!! when i got to the school, the nurse and i tried to get her up so that we could secure her arm, she turned to adriana and said "you know sweetie, it's okay to cry if you need to." she hadn't shed a tear. she must have gone into shock, or adrenaline must of been pretty high! 10 hours later, x-rays, an ambulance ride, and a surgery later....she ended up with 2 pins in her wrist, and 4 in her elbow, and still very little tears. the girl is tough!!!!! the bravest person i've ever known. the doctor told us that it was a rare break and had only seen 4 ever! he fixed my baby girl up and off we were to recovery!!! what a great show and tell story huh?!?! the only wonderful thing about this whole day was the sweetest little testimony that adriana shared with us. she asked her daddy for a blessing, that was so sweet and precious, and then turned to me afterwards and said..."mommy, do you know why i've been so brave? because my heavenly father is with me." to hear my little girl have so much faith was one of the greatest joy i've experience! wow, what a precious little angel we have!!!

Ahhh...what a sweetheart!! I love to hear the testimonies of young children. I hope she if feeling better real soon!!
What an angel! I have no idea why they even have monkey bars on the playground anymore! They are okay at parks where parents can keep a close eye, but not at schools with one monitor for 800 kids! Poor girl, I hope she feels better soon. Thanks for sharing her testimony.
Oh my goodness! It's so sad that she is hurting, and that you had to experience such a fright, but so awesome to witness the depth of her testimony... and yours! All our love!
