And the Mother of the Year Award Goes To....

... someone else. 

I know I've mentioned it before, but my Princess is a bit of a climber. As in she is on the kitchen table at least five times a day despite all my efforts to keep her off, and getting up on the back of the couch is a breeze. This also means, of course that she has fallen a few times. A few days ago she somehow managed to climb up onto one of the shelves in the closet in our toy room. Since these shelves don't start until about the level of her forehead, I was pretty impressed, and instead of getting her down right away I grabbed my phone to get a pic. I've done this so many times before, but this time I was too late, and she fell right onto a block. 

She wasn't too happy and just wanted to cuddle for awhile after that, which of course had me Googling signs of concussions in children and checking her pupils. She was fine, though, and it wasn't long before she was back to her normal, happy, climbing self, and the goose egg went down pretty fast. 

When I sent this picture to Marquis, the first thing he asked was if I got the pic of her falling. Sadly no, what I got was this:

An upside down, blurry shot of my desk and work chair. If you are going to get a gigantic bonk on the head, you should at least get an awesome falling pic out of it! Maybe next time, though.
