Yesterday was opening day around Major League Baseball, and it was opening day for official practice for Sault Little League. The kids and I had a good practice and a lot of fun. They were promised Dairy Queen afterwards, for getting good grades in school, not just because of baseball. When we get to Dairy Queen and get out of the car, I hear Lily make this blood-curdling scream! I rush around the car to see her poor little finger stuck in the now shut door. I pulled the door open and got a glance of her finger-not good! I shoved her in the back seat, jumped the curb, and headed for the hospital. I called Lisa on our way there and she arrived just minutes after we did. They put her finger on ice, gave her some Motrin for her pain, and x-rayed her finger. We still don't know if it's broken yet, but at least she's wasn't feeling a lot of pain by the time we left. If it is broken, the poor girl will likely start this season again on the DL (disabled list for you non-sports people). Last year she missed much of the season due to surgery she had on the same hand. I'm praying it's not broken and she can get healed up-she is such a tough little girl, though.
UPDATE: Lily's finger is NOT broken, thank God. She'll only miss one week of practice, if that. Again, she's a tough little girl and I am so proud of her.
