"Third times the charm"

Okay, this is now Jessey's third cast.  Yesterday I took Jess to Dr. Richter to have him straighten out and cast her elbow one last time.  She was not happy because the last time we did this it was so traumatic for her.  But, instead of two people holding her down while three others try to straighten and cast her.... we decided to have her sedated.  She did very good and was pleasantly surprised with her waterproof, glow in the dark, camo cast!  How awesome is that.   There is one problem though,  today at pre-school she was showing her class her new cast when she accidently hit one of the boys in the head with her heavy, rock hard arm!  
Micheal thinks it is funny to tell Jessey that if anyone is being mean to her to just hit them with it.  Jessey gets a big smile on her face and contemplates that for a moment in her head.... but I of course tell her "don't you dare!"  And then I give Michael a dirty look for putting ideas into her head.

That is totally something Zach would do. In fact, he has. He tells Tayler that if someone is hitting her, to hit them back and just get rough with them. Gotta love the DAD advice. Poor Jessey, Tesha was telling me how traumatic the whole thing was for you. Hopefully this time will do the trick.
