Say OWIE!!! Daughter Two with Broke Ankle

Last night Courtney broke her ankle in gymnastics class. She was coming off a high mat from a round off that should have moved right into a back handspring... instead she lost her balance and her ankle twisted beneath her.  She crashed down on top of it and it broke.  Her coach said he heard it snap. 

She'll be off her feet and in a cast for about 4-6 weeks.  She is really really disappointed.  Tryouts for the varsity cheer squad are this summer so we're praying she'll be back on her feet and able to catch up before then.  If not there is always next year and she needs to worry more about healing properly than gymnastics class and cheering. It's hard for her to understand though because her heart is so much into cheerleading and tumbling.  She finally fell into a good sleep, praise the Lord for Vicodin, about 2:30 am this morning.
