3 Falls.

Much to Mummy's dismay + heartache, Adri fell 3 times yesterday!
No big deal about kids falling actually; it's part and parcel of growing up. However, Adri hit her head when she fell!

Upon the 3rd fall, i was jokingly telling Mart that the only part of her head that had not been hit were her two sides. =/

1) Adri was kneeling and trying to bounce. In the midst of so doing, she fell backwards and hit the back of her head. Mummy who was near (and attending to i can't rem what) didn't expect her to fall as she had been performing that stunt for weeks and had never fallen! Perhaps her muscles were strengthened over the weeks and the added thrill got her to try to raise herself to a greater height before landing?
A really loud thud followed by a crescendo of wails were what i heard. Adri had hit the hard tile.

2) Adri was with Daddy. It has been a routine for Adri to cling onto Daddy's pants and walk a little every day. She loves that. It's lots easier to cling onto Daddy's pants than to Mummy's skirt.

Daddy didn't expect ADri to let go of her grip (i guess she was trying to stand without aid). And yes, she fell. From an awful height backwards, hitting hard against the tile once again.

3) Adri was crawling around on the sofa. The little daredevil wanted to reach Daddy who was on the mattress next to the couch and decided to dive headdown...how strange!
Thank God for the cushion!


Mummy was glad that little Adri was a little daredevil; the repeated hits on her head didn't stop her from venturing; Adri cried for only a while each time and thereafter, resumed her stunts! =O
My little brave one. =)
