Man Feet

I feel like the worst mom in the world!
Yesterday, I went outside to check the mail. I didn't want to carry Vahn all the way down to the street so I sat him in the grass to play. By the time I got to the mail box, he was screaming in pain. I ran back up the drive way to see him "dancing" on the hot black top barefoot. I scooped him up and put his feet in cool water - for over an hour I kept him there every time I tried to take him out he would scream. - Poor little guy - we called the dr and they wanted to see him so we took him in and found out that he has 2nd degree burns on both of his feet! I feel so bad for him - I know how much burns can hurt. They gave me a cream to put on them and said to keep them wrapped up and socks on and to alternate tylenol and motrin all weekend - they want to see him back on Monday.

I feel so bad! I know its not really my fault - I put him where he was safe - I just wish I could take his pain away!

Here are some pictures Zac took after we saw the dr

Oh, the poor little guy! I know that was traumatic for both of you. I hope he's feeling better today.
