I should have known when it was too quiet. All the sudden, I realized Abby wasn’t “there” and Ron was right there, so I asked if the gate on the stairs was up. Nope. Ahhhhh!
She was probably 8 steps up (maybe 10?) and had turned around! I can’t even imagine what her next action could have been… disasterous is the only word that comes to mine.
In any case, I rushed up and got her and put the gate up. Geez! I hate stairs for just this reason! Ugh!
