Compassion for the injured and wounded our son

This morning after work I was challenged to some hoops. The boys and their friend who spent the night. So I go to pass the basketball and how our one boy caught it broke his finger. We hit walk in clinic x ray showed fracture. So they taped it up with splint. And we stopped to get more tape and adhesive wrap. And his brother was like here dad let’s get him the pink adhesive wrap. I’m like we better not as he was sitting in the car. To wounded to make the trip into the store sarcasm. So we’re home now he has no clue how he will play x box or guitar. We have follow up with orthopedics Tuesday. I said son will you be able to feed yourself. And then his brother jumps in to aggravate as well.

The boys will have great stories to laugh about as they get older. "Hey, remember when you broke your finger?" "Yeh, I remember you and dad gave me a hard time."

I'm the second of 3 boys. My mother was sure she would have a girl.

He hates pink to this day.
