‘…the thigh bone’s connected to the knee bone, the knee bone’s connected to the leg bone …

The most popular post on this blog by far is “Anyone with a picture of Kate’s feet, send it to…”Recently, someone sent in a photo that wasn’t of Kate’s feet.  I know what feet look like so I normally don’t mistake them for the body part that we received. Obviously this is not the case for some people so maybe a brief refresher in anatomy might be apropos just to be on the safe side.

A foot, according to Answers.com is part of “The lower extremity of the vertebrate leg that is in direct contact with the ground in standing or walking.” Not only can you walk and stand with feet, you can also dance and run. You can, as the saying goes ‘put your best foot forward’, or as in the case of the person who sent the photo in ‘put your foot in your mouth’.

I hope this has cleared up any misunderstandings about what feet are. We hope that you continue to enjoy our articles on Kate’s feet, inspired by the enduring fascination people seem to have with them.
