Sommer fractured her toe this past week! Our school had a "Reading Under the Stars" night and Sommer had to be there for Student Council. When they were cleaning up, a table fell on her foot and broke her middle toe. This is not exactly what Sommer needs at the moment. She just got an acceptance letter to dance in the Nutcracker again this year - with practices starting this weekend. And she has just begun her pointe classes (which she absolutely loves). She will have to stay off of it for at least a couple of weeks. We will go to see an orthopedic doctor next week and find out exactly what we need to do. There really isn't much of anything they can do for broken toes. She has to wear a little "boot" and stay off of it as much as she can. But other than that it just has to heal itself.
Sommer has gotten a concussion at school, dislocated her knee at school, and now we can add a broken toe to her list of injuries from school. And she's only half way to graduation!

Ouch! Poor Sommer! I hope that she can still perform in the Nutcracker!
That looks worse than you described on the phone! OUCH! Maybe you should research the schools insurance policy and have them add Sommer! :)
On another note: CONGRATULATIONS to all the girls for getting parts in the Nutcracker! We are all so proud of you and can't wait to see you perform! Woo-Hoo!
