Nothing like school holidays after a long term! One of our outings these holidays was a trip to Brisbane to see my sister and her family. We planned an exciting day out at the Winter Wonderland in King George Square, where we ice skated and played in the snow pit. I was a little worried about the ice skating and in the back of my mind worried about broken bones from falling on the ice! We all had varying success at ice skating. My sister and I skated the rink like we were kids again on our roller skates (well in our minds we thought so, I’m not sure the video quite captured our grace and skill like we did!) and we all walked away and enjoyed some well-earned gelato, yummy!! That afternoon the kids were playing in the park, on the same play equipment as most parks. The park had a fort and fireman’s pole, just like the kindergarten Master B goes to and loves playing on each day. Unexpectedly, Master B, my littlest man, broke his radius and ulna in a fireman pole fall off the fort. I felt completely helpless. All I could do was accompany him in the ambulance, keep my own emotions at bay and pat him the way he has always likes and reassure him that he is safe and that he will be ok.
