Irony and a Birthday

Today is Grant's 14th birthday. But let's backtrack just a bit...one year ago...this happened: broken left hand from a trampoline. Happened the week before his 13th birthday. This week, the week before his 14th birthday, this happened: broken left wrist. The irony? Well, remember this post? I was worried sick about Grant getting hurt playing tackle football. So how did this new break happen? Playing TOUCH football at school. And now he can't play tackle football. Ironic, isn't it? Fortunately, it's a minor break and the doctor allowed him to just wear a splint and for only 3 weeks. Boys will be boys...3 breaks in this family so far...and counting... (Oh, and no snickering about the lame "14" candle where the "1" and the "4" totally don't match and that they are actually sitting on brownies and not a cake. It's the thought that counts."
