When my Amanda was about 4-5 years old, I walked into her room just in time to see a sight that will be in my head when I die! She had dragged a stepstool in there to get something high up on her closet shelf. When I walked in, she glanced over her shoulder, lost her balance and as she was falling, she grabbed for her chest of drawers. There was a basket of flowers sitting there and that's what her little hand grabbed ... there she lay on her back, on the floor with a "death grip" still on the basket of flowers!! I was laughing so hard that tears were streaming until I realized the fall had knocked the breath out of her!!  Scared the krap out of me!! We still laugh about this over 20 years later!!  |
The whole family cracks up when retelling that tv story...what we don't find funny
... AAWWW... poor Amanda...
she probably couldn't figure out why her moms laughing at her...
I still can't get the image of my DH when he went to it in a wooden kitchen chair & when he sat...ALL FOUR legs gave out at the same time
It was on a hard wood floor so it was quite loud & it drew my immediate attention...when I looked over at him he was still seated in the seat w/ his legs straight out in front of him, but all the legs went scattering across the floor...he had the look of, "What the h*ll!!"..I thought I'd pee my pants....
