I'm beginning to think we might need a doctor to just go on ahead and move in with us. Especially if he can treat dogs too. Did you know that everyone has a growth plate in their heel that develops until you are around 14? Did you know that you can shatter it? Did you know that a Boy Child can walk around on it like that for MONTHS, all the while saying things like "I'm not limping!" "It doesn't hurt!"? He will have to be in the cast for at least 3 weeks, but more likely like 2 months. I guess this all happened at a good time, because it will not interfere with the all important FootBall Season. Interrupting FootBall Season might cause the sun to stop rising, or the birds to stop singing.
Lets just pretend you have shattered the growth plate in your heel and your parents told you that you did not have to attend the last day of school, would you do a lopsided Snoopy Dance, or would you send your mother on multiple town voyage (in a storm!) to find the only correct size of crutches left on the face of the earth so that your friends can sign your cast?
Also, something about this has triggered Pops to realize that we no longer have babies, a fact that I have been lamenting for at least 7 years.
We want to sign the cast, too!!! Can you forge our signatures, please?
