World's Worst Parents

I think we get the award for being the world's worst parents this week. Three and a half weeks ago Jordan fell off his bike. He was attempting to ride his bicycle and throw water balloons at the same time (smart huh?). He complained that his ankle was sore and he thought he sprained it. That same day and same foot, he also had a stick go up through his flip flop and puncture the bottom of his foot. At the time, his puncture wound seemed like the more serious injury. He was also leaving for a week of scout camp the following day. He limped around the first few days, but it seemed to be getting better. We did find it odd that it never bruised like a sprain, and over time the swelling never went away. So, we finally took him to the doctor 3 1/2 weeks later. Needless to say, a bone in his ankle was broken and we felt terrible! He really didn't complain about it being painful, and he continued most of his daily activities like normal. So there you have it, we feel like the world's worst parents! Oh, by the way, he got stung by a yellow jacket on that same ankle while mowing the neighbors yard a few days ago. Bad luck!
