Last night at our baseball game, S had to leave the field to use the little boys room. As he was heading around the back stop, a kid took a practice swing with a bat and slammed S across his arm and chest. Neither boy knew the other was there. The parents all gasped in horror. One coach out by center field heard the thump. A dad felt the vibration hit his own body.
And he wasn't hurt! I asked, over and over, to the point where S was quite irritated with me. He just needed to go to the bathroom! I called our 24-hour nurse to see if I should bring him in to the ER (because the coach was really worried), but she said to just keep an eye on him. Today he has a small bruise on his arm, but that is all! Sometimes I think this boy has a special guardian angel that works overtime so S makes it to adulthood.
