While playing softball one night, on my second day of summer vacation, I broke my leg. The doctors called it a tib-fib fracture. Basically my shin bone and the bone behind it broke. I now have a metal rod in my leg and I am in a soft cast for who knows how long. This wouldn't be such a big deal, if I didn't have two children to look after.
I have come to learn that my 9 year girl is very helpful when she sees that someone is in need. Case in point, her mom. I'm lucky to have her as well as great family willing to look after my 17 month old boy while my boyfriend is at work. I wouldn't ask her to look after him, because she needs to have a summer break, even if I only get half of one.
I have faith that she will keep this kind of mentality as she continues to grow into a beautiful young lady. It's always a good quality to have as you go through life. As long as you don't let other people take advantage of it.
