{What Goes Up Must Come Down}

Unfortunately it is quickly becoming apparent that our daughter, the lovely Lauren, has inherited her mothers "clutsy" genes. I have yet to figure out how my daughter can fall over or run into things so many times in one day. For example, in a 30 minute time period Friday morning, she fell down three times....just tripped on thin air. She fell over twice today because of the shoes she had on, and fell down outside while "helping" Dean mow the lawn, scraping up her knee. She has little bruises all over her legs. She tends to not watch where she is going and walk right into walls, refrigerators, furniture and basically anything that isn't above 3 feet. Several months ago, we were in the office and she decided she was going to go get something from the other room. She bolts for the door, while still looking at me behind her, and face plants into the corner of the wall. She hit so hard with her head, SHE DENTED THE WALL, and left a lovely bruise above her eye...I think I need to bundle her up like the kid from A Christmas Story...it would be for her own good!
