Sprained Ankle

Can you guess whose ankle this is? Let me tell you what happened first. This morning, Cory and I were woken up by one of our kids screaming in pain and crying. So, we laid there for a bit and listened to the commotion taking place downstairs. We could hear Tim telling someone to lay down and put up her foot. Then, we heard Mak say she would get an ice pack. During all of this talk, the screaming and crying were still going on. Kelli was also saying something and thumping around the house like she usually does. So, have you guessed whose ankle this is?Yep, it's Katie's ankle. This morning, she and Kelli were outside jumping on the trampoline. Katie decided to jump off the tramp onto the grass. When she did, she sprained her ankle. She was pretty upset about it too - she woke Cory and I up from a wonderful sleep. I love my kids! Tim and Mak were in the basement and came running upstairs and took care of Katie when they heard her screaming and crying. Kelli was just there for sister support. Katie is doing okay now. She is walking on her ankle, but very slowly. The ankle is very swollen, but it is not bruised, yet. Good thing Cory and I have both sprained our ankles and know what to look for and do!
