Last Tuesday after the evenings activates we all came home happy but weary from the day. Todd had quite a large headache and was laying down on the couch while I was watching the latest video update from Lonelygirl15 (of which I am totally hooked!). Tatie was happily playing in her bath while listening to Sydney read her stories out of some of her favorite books. It was a quiet evening at home. But the solitude was not meant to be! No…
Kinsey had decided that this solitude would be best enjoyed by donning a pair of white socks and dancing on the smooth kitchen linoleum. A task she completed with grace. Until that is…*que dramatic theme music* The refrigerator savagely attacked her foot during a elegant pirouette! How dare the refrigerator be in such an inconvenient place!
Her foot slammed into the side of the monstrosity leaving her sprawling to the floor in agony. We wrapped her foot and kissed her better and waited for what the coming day would bring. Well, it brought swelling and very unsavory purple bruising. We rushed Kinsey to the doctor concerned that the mincing injury could be far worse that originally thought…could it be broken?
Gratefully, the doctor did not think so. But he ordered an x-ray just incase the pain did not subside. He wrapped her foot in an ace bandage and pink boot giving her instruction to dope early and dope often. And to look out for muscle bound refrigerators in the future.
You’ll be happy to know that she has made a full recovery and is no longer in need of her stylin’ florescent foot wear.

That’s what you get for kicking the fridge.
Kinsey, where is a good rubber room when you need one? Then you would just bounce off!!! ntti flpmpkr, nttp uxkvpkr, wxmmtgpkt
I am glad to hear that you have recovered from your fridge accident. Keep up the dancing, it makes life fun.
I just loved the little pink boot.and the sweet girl in it.I sure hope you are feeling better from your awful illness I love you Gram
Why do things like this happen to the sweetest people!!!!! And then on top of that pain you get the flu. I know you are really sick and I feel so bad for you. I pray that you feel better real soon. I will make you a new blanket, much bigger and softer than the last one I gave you. I am so happy your foot wasn’t broken., because I never want you to miss a dance!! I love you
