Cast away...

Ella's pink cast (seen here just a few nights ago before dance class) is gone.

We went to Children's Mercy Hospital this morning for her follow-up, and as expected, the cast came off. The saw or vacuum as they so delicately described the noisy machine, cut through the bright pink fiberglass and then special pliers popped it off.

She was thrilled! Mainly because of a song they sing as preschool with their hands open, then closed, then clapping, that she couldn't do properly with the cast on.

She was so excited to take the cast to school with her today. (they put the two pieces back together for her) She also got to bring a printed xray of her healing wrist.

Special "show and tell" for the 3 year-old class today, and my girl couldn't be more proud.
