Well, we feared injury this year and it finally happened. Not to Bennett, but to Anna, and no, not on the BMX track, but at home. Argh. Anna was playing on her bed Tuesday and slipped off falling on her shoulder. She snapped her clavicle (collarbone) right in the middle. Please send your prayers and healing wishes her way.
Besides being hurt, one real downside is that she was going to be chasing a state plate this year. I think she will be okay though. She will get in the gate at Tooele, I will then help her down the hill, and she will then cut the track and cross the finish line. Of course, she will get dead last, but I think that will be enough points since she is the only 5 & Under girl.

Thanks Jenni & Adam. I will make sure to pass along your messages to her and I am sure it will help cheer her up. She is pretty bummed, but she is also being a real trooper.
One other thing: Anna might be a contender for a 5 & Under Girl NAG plate. To help facilitate this we were going to go ahead and move her to Girl class this week. Jaycee Barnett and Heaven Menlove would help to form the local class. This was all Annas decision and she is really bummed that this might throw a wrinkle in her plans. She still might be a NAG contender, but healing is going to have to come first. Fortunately, I hear collarbones heal quickly.
