Aunt Jennifer's Accident

Last weekend, Jennifer and I took Katie and the dogs out for a walk. Somehow Jennifer's feet ended up getting tangled, and she took a fall. Even though her foot hurt, she insisted on bravely finishing the walk.  By the time we got home, her foot looked pretty bad…almost like she had an extra ankle bone in a strange place.

After the Walk

Once Katie saw Aunt Jennifer take off her shoe and hobble into the living room, she took off her shoe and decided that she was the one with the sore foot. She was holding her foot and talking about her ow-ie on her foot.

The next day, Jennifer was having a hard time walking and agreed to go to the doctor. She found out her foot was broken and that she would have to wear a boot for six weeks. 

Katie didn't pay much attention to her boot for a couple of days. Then she walked up to Jennifer and very seriously proclaimed, "Nice boot." She reached down and touched the padded part of the boot and said, "Soft." I'm sure the compliments made Jennifer feel much better about her heavy foot!

Nice Boot

I can be like Aunt Jennifer!
