Playdate Fail

Ptolemy has a man crush on his friend, Josh.  They are such cute playmates.  Last week, Josh came over and pushed Ptolemy off his top bunk.  Long story short, his collarbone was fractured.  I was so glad I wasn't the other mom.  I'm sure she was mortified.  She brought Josh over with a note of apology, and later, after PT showed up at school in a sling, a pumpkin to carve and another apology.
He didn't move the arm for a few days, but he's fine now.
I checked him out of school one day because it's tiring being in pain.

Everyone enjoyed pampering their baby brother.  Freestone read to him

and Xanthe carried his backpack to and from school.
  Cute little Ptolemy with his skinny little body.  He's all skin and bones, so it's not surprising that his collarbone was hurt.  In fact, the bone doc said there had been a previous fracture on his humerus, that had been healing for a few weeks.  What the heck!  He had a fractured bone and we didn't know?  I'm sure it was minor, but geez.  Boys!
