proven to be a mother of the most awesomenest child

[Rain Keeper]

So, I decide my daughter and I need some Mommy /Daughter time. SHe had been worried about me since last weeks "accident". We went to see the movie Mama Mia....It was all good. Non husband around...I sent him to be with our son Dark night ...Mummy 3...not fun for my girl...

Anyway... about 15 minute before the movie was to end she stated she had to "go". I let her...safe environment... She comes back crying!

My sweet baby girl fell on the last step going down. SHe was worried about hitting her eyes and naturally put her hands down to catch herself.

*snap...she broke her arm!

We reported it (didnt for sure know it was broken at this time) and I took her to the emergency room. We styed there for about 5 hours....it would have been a lot shorter time, but after she wsa splinted she asked the dr...who WAS VERY NICE... to look at "my Mommy's accident" THe dr gave me cream...didnt ask many questions..and handed me a number for someone to talk to ... if I needed anything...

My daughter always thinking of herself last.

How can I make this up to her?
she is the best...so great to feel loved!

I as i write this... i realize..she is to start space camp on monday!...arghhhh....hope she will still be able to participate!


loving you, Rain


thanks for listening :)

Awww that is so sweet and cute, you must be so proud of her, hope shes ok and can go to space camp as well! Umm make it up to her, maybe have another mother/daughter day? Just do something special for her? Maybe take her out to lunch or buy her something (like not heaps expensive) that she really likes, something like a hobby? Or perhaps write her a letter letting her know how much she means to you, just something she can cherish forever? I don't know really sorry :P

Hi new on RYL but had to comment on your post. You sound a really loving and caring mum and you must be so proud of your daughter. Very mature and selfless. Hope she enjoys space camp! You take care XxX

If i met your aughter, I would give her a huge cuddle! what an absolute champion of a kid!!!! she has an AWESOME mother as well!!!!!

Kids are so gorgeous and caring and it sounds like your daughter is super. I went to collect my sister from my mum's yesterday and one of my nephew's pointed to an injury and said "sore?" in a really cute way as if he cared that I was hurting. Unfortunately, my family don't know that I sh and so I had to just brush it off. How is it that we spoil this natural compassion?

I hope she still gets to enjoy space camp!

Rain you may beat yourself up for a lot of stuff, but to have such an amazing daughter is a huge compliment to you and how you have raised her. She has probably learnt from example as i know you often put others before yourself.

Stay strong for her, I know she will be your light when things get dark.

What a love she is.

Could you maybe get her a pair of pretty fingerless gloves to she can put them on over the cast?

[Misunderstood.]

That's wonderful, kids rock. =)

[Detour. Derail]

I hope your daughters arm is ok :]
I think...you dont realy NEED to make it up to her...its clear you love each other INCREDIBLY and thats worth ten times more than any gift or present :]
She sounds like an absolute star and I'm sure she'll go so far in life :]
But you know....children learn things like that...from their parents....
If shes an awesome daughter...you must be an awesome mummy :D
