Makenna, Makenna

• Makenna hurt her shoulder about a year and a half ago...she decided to do a somersault over the back of our couch, landed wrong, and got a fracture in her shoulder. After awhile it was fine and life went on. Well, just last week she was washing her hair and came out of the shower screaming. Her arm was literally stuck - she couldn't move it up or down. So we took her in - it was dislocated and the doc got it put back, but he was concerned. Obviously washing her hair shouldn't have disclocated her shoulder. So he wanted to know what was going on and recommended an MRI. Makenna was nervous as we talked about it as a family. Quentin said, "Sweetie, we just want to do what's in your best interest." And she promptly replied, "But I'm not interested!" Anyway, we did the MRI and the doc was pleased with how things looked. He suggested a bit of physical therapy, which Makenna will start in a few weeks, and she should be good as new!
• Makenna had a question on some of her homework one day. She had to find 4 puns in "Romeo and Juliet" and seemed stumped. I asked, "Well, first of all, what is a pun?" And she sat there for a minute, and replied, "Well...it's hard to explain. It's like, herherher." (a dorky laugh, showing someone's typical reaction to a pun!)
