An 8 year olds worst day ever! - Real Mum story on MoM

12 Comments

I was picking up my 8 year old from school. I was waiting at the school gate for him when I seen him there was a couple of things I noticed..
1. He was limping
2. he had a fat lip that had some sort of white cream on it
3. he had about 5-8 stickers for good effort all over his school shirt.
He promptly got in the back car seat and put his leg up on the centre console.
Mum: how was your day?
Master 8: It was the worst day ever!
Mum: Why, what happened?
Master 8: I tripped up the playground, broke me leg and busted my lip open.
Mum: ok, why do you think your leg is broken?
master 8: (points to a tiny little bump on his shin-maybe about size of a 5c piece) look it’s massive!
Mum: ok, I don’t think it’s broken but we’ll keep an eye on it. What’s the white stuff on your lip?
Master 8: oh that’s some sort of cream the teachers put on us to stop bleeding.
Mum: oh ok. So did you get all the stickers for being brave or what are they for?
Master 8: no. I got all my sight words correct today, I didn’t annoy the teacher, I done all my work by myself and she was very proud of me.
Mum: oh that’s excellent mate, well done! So why was it the worst day ever?
Master 8: Weren’t you listening! I broke my leg!
He was walking properly half hour later with no breaks lol his lip took about 3 weeks to heal though!

I love how kids see things. My kids are exactly the same. Ant turns into elephant in a second.

  Yeah y 9 year olds dramatic because it’s unusual for him to hurt himself. my 4 year old bounces lol we’re lucky if we make it through a day without him bashing his head on something, getting a cut/bruise or just generally hurting himself. His learnt to bounce lol

Poor kid! when my kids gets hurt we get the complimentary call to say what has happened and how they dealt with it. It is lovely that they do this
