So Terrence wanted to make sure Kacey wasn't alone in the broken bone department and decided to join her. Terrence, Kacey and I were jogging along the beach Thanksgiving Day and he had on new shoes and a different terrain than what he was used to. It caused a stress fracture that just kept going and finally snapped a bone on the ball of his foot in two. Who knew a little bone on the bottom of your foot could cause so much pain!?
Conner has really stepped up to help and so have Sam and Brooke. Conner heaved the Christmas tree upstairs (thank goodness for those 8 inches he grew this past year) and everyone joined in to haul all the Christmas stuff from the basement. My kids are used to having house lights every year, but there was no way Terrence could get up there with his foot and the kids were pretty disappointed. Terrence's brother Ty put lights on the house for us with Conner and his friend Tappin's help. It wouldn't have happened without them. I heard Brooke call a friend and tell her, "We have lights on our house now!" A week behind what we're used to but all the symbols of Christmas surround us now and IT FEELS GREAT! (I think it might be time for me to break something when it's time to take down.) Terrence is such a help that when he's out of commission the impact is huge. Well, Merry Christmas to everyone and have fun with all of your Christmas traditions.
