raptor drama

This weekend we went to a Raptor's game with Claudia, Kevin, and Matt's grandparents. I haven't been to a game since high school, so I thought it would be something different to do.
So, everything was going fine, we were eating ice cream, cheering for the team, and then it happened......Maddie got hit by a foul ball! It came flying towards us, and thumped her right in the side. She started screaming, and the everything seemed to go into slow motion. Everyone was looking at us, and the workers asked if we wanted the paramedic to look at her.
As a mom, you can understand, I felt horrible! It was such a freak accident, and you never think that would happen to you, much less your babe! Maddie is such a trooper though, after about 10 minutes of crying, and me cuddling her she was back up cheering with grandma.
We got to keep the ball as a souvenir, not like we want to remember this injury. Maddie is doing fine, but has a fat bruise on her side. What a night!

  2. That is crazy! What bad luck. I am glad she was ok and you didn't need to take her to the ER or anything like that. Kids are always pretty good about bouncing right back.

  4. Oh my gosh Sam! That's way scary! When we were at the Bee's game we got so worried about that. So many foul balls & you can never tell where they are going to go. Poor Maddie! Glad she's okay!
