Scary, scary and I caught her before she hit the floor. She’s 100% a-ok, and the flashlight is the culprit.
For some reason, the girls LOVE flashlights. Ron had to go look for something outside and took the BIG mega-flashlight with him and upon his return, E&A wanted it. Abby wanted lights off so she could go upstairs with the flashlight lighting her way. Since Emi was pouting at that moment — because she didn’t have the flashlight, Abby went by herself. Em & I sat at the piano to play and a few second later, I hear the thud/bouncing noise of the flashlight coming down the stairs and as I turned, saw Abby following it closely, head first! Yikes!
I don’t quite know how, but I managed to move Emi and get to the stairs in time to catch Abby. I don’t think she was really falling all that fast, but she was falling and it did scare her — badly. She bumped her head but that was it and the bump was super minor. How do I know she was ok?
Because Ron immediately took the flashlight away and when Abby saw that Daddy was taking it away, she jumped up, crying and mad and RAN after Ron trying to get the darn thing back. A-ok. Glad their bones are soft still!!!
No more lights off, flashlight journeys up the stairs though!
