Like Mother Like Daughter
Well I guess its true what they say, history really does repeat itself. My sister loves to tell the story of how I "dropped" her on her head.... Last night Kaitlyn was holding Gabby on my bed. Gabby has learned how to crawl backwards but not forwards, and Kate got a little too distracted by the TV. Before she knew what was happening Gabby managed to crawl backwards off the side of the bed. She bumped her head on her dresser, but luckily not hard. Scared all of us, but I think Kaitlyn worst of all. I didn't know who to worry about more, poor Gabby had a good cry for all of a minute, until she heard Kaitlyn crying, then she was fine and looking at Kaitlyn like "what's going on?" Kaitlyn on the other hand was so upset she was hyperventilating for a long time. She had just finished her breathing treatments, and I was actually worried she'd have to do another one... I called Nurse Connect just to be on the safe side, but Gabby was all giggles and smiles, and although I watched her closely, she is absolutely fine with nothing more than a tiny bump to show for it. Kaitlyn managed to calm down after a couple hours, but she gave me a good scare too. It took a lot of consoling, mostly me assuring her Gabby was okay, and telling her she was still doing a better job than I did as a big sister, because Katie managed to fall on her head not once but twice while in my care. I think what finally did it was when I told her Aunt Katie tells everyone that I "dropped" her, but I tell everyone she jumped. (Katie threw herself backwards while I was holding her on my lap and managed to keep going right out of my arms....) It's all a matter of perspective.
