What a klutz. I’m almost embarrassed by this, but I think we all have those moments, don’t we?

We’re rebuilding the porch steps. It’s been a long time coming and I finally convinced MrJ that it couldn’t be put off any longer.

So MrJ and BamBam are working on the steps, and of course I choose that moment to go and tend to Sally the Duck. As I’m trying to climb around them, I step down into a hole that the lovely dog has left right next to the steps, twist my ankle, and slam my butt into the corner of the steps.

MrJ turns around quickly ready to ream me for hitting him (like I could help that in my not-so-graceful moment). BamBam freezes in shock that Mommy is not as talented as he thought. And MiniMe starts to stutter… wondering if she should open her mouth to ask if I’m okay. All the while I’m not sure if I’m ready to cry because I’m embarrassed or actually hurt.

Now, I have a sprained ankle on the left side and a bruised butt on the right. I can’t walk well and I can’t sit straight… oh those precious moments that our children will probably never let us forget :)

Got an embarrassing moment you’d like to share?
