Broken Arm on a 4 Year Old; a Retrospective
@kate2018 Hang in there, bud. One of my twin daughters broke her femur 2 years ago just as lockdowns were really coming into high gear. She'll hardly remember the break in a few years, but she will remember that Daddy is there for her when she needs it forever. -
