Ouch! that had to hurt.

Well as you can all see Merci had quite an eventful week this week. Yes that is a black eye. Where to start, Well I always watch a friends daughter on Mondays and Tuesday's, and the girls and I were upstairs playing in the play room, when her mother came so I ran downstairs to gather all of her stuff together. ( leaving the girls upstairs with the gate open. Not a good idea.) now mind you both girls are pretty good about going up and down the stairs but I guess Merci lost her footing and according to my friend proceeded to fall down the stairs head over heels all the way down. And then like the mother that I am I did the absolute worst thing, swooped in and picked her up immediately without checking for broken bones, neck etc... Any way the worst thing that she received from this tragic incident was that lovely black eye which was present for every Easter picture that we took lovely right? I guess we learned a big lesson about stairs this week. We will not be leaving Merci unattended for quite some time.
