crochet socks pattern

So, I hurt my back yesterday and I am taking the day off work and spending the day in bed with a heating pad under me, a bottle of Motrin at my side, and my laptop wherever I can use it and be comfy at the same time. I have had these patterns floating around for crochet socks that I have made for my kids. They are scribbled in this type of short hand for crochet patterns that I sorta made up as I went along. I have been wanting to put them on my laptop and in a form that anyone could understand, anyone that crochets that is. Well that is just what I have done and I am going to post it here. Please keep in mind if you use that pattern, it has only been tested by my and I wrote it as I went. If there are any errors, please let me know and I will fix it in the pattern. At this time I don't have a pic of the socks. At some point today I will add a pic for you all to see. :)
