Anika's Broken Arm (small fracture of bone in elbow)

Anika's friends at school wasted no time in filling up her cast with signatures and pictures.

Anika has a broken arm (a small fracture of a bone in her elbow) - you can see pictures of her pink cast below.

Anika was playing with one of her neighborhood friends last night, they were both riding their razor scooters and she fell off it and hit her elbow on the sidewalk.

Thankfully, both Anika and her friend had their helmets on - although she didn't have her elbow or knee pads on - I think she's learned her lesson the hard way on that one.

I think the worst part is she likely won't be able to do swimming lessons for awhile, she had her first pollywog class on Monday, so she was really looking forward to them.
