Vulnerable

So most of the time, we feel very comfortable and happy here. As long as things are going well. It is when we have a bit of a blip that you feel a bit vulnerable. As it goes for me, I was walking up to school yesterday with X in my arms and my ankle simply turned out. (He was fine just a bit startled.) I now have a grapefruit size ankle. As most of you know this is not an uncommon experience for me. It was bad enough this time that I went into the walk in clinic the next morning. It is a bad sprain and not a break (I knew that.) I will live to get married, as my mother would say (oh, mom and dad don’t read this!) but these are the times we really feel how far from home we are.
