Pins and Needles...

Last Wednesday was a BIG day for our little Joel. He got his pins taken out of finger. Although the Doctor said it was not going to hurt, Joel said it did!!! He was a bit nervous before he actually took the pins out- I think all the waiting made it worse.

When the doctor finally did come in, it looked like he actually had some pliers. It really didn't take that long and Joel was very brave. He didn't really cry, just yelled Aawww!!! After he was done, they put a splint on his finger and he has to wear that for two weeks. After that he can take it off unless he will be playing rough. We have to come back in a month or so.

Since the school year is almost over (two more 1/2 days) and it is Summer break there are a lot of end of the year programs going on. Like in my previous post I mentioned that Riley had her "Popsicle" party. After they all had their Popsicle, we went back to her class room and they sang some songs for us. It was great.

Then Joel had his little program where they sang songs and then we went back to his class and they did their Animal PowerPoint presentation. They did a really good job.

We also had our last choir presentation at church. Both Riley and Jesse did a couple of songs with the "Wee Worshippers" and Joel did some songs his M&M Choir. It was a lot of fun to watch. I was wondering how Jesse was going to do but he did a really good job. I could tell he was really enjoying himself.
