Pearl Took a Tumble

Not an unusual occurance for one who has only been walking for a few months, but check out the huge goose egg on the poor girl's cheek:



She refuses to sit idly in the stroller while we take our evening walks in the park these days, and insists instead upon walking, preferably without holding on to a parent's hand. The asphalt of the downhill path was unforgiving, and she landed right on her cheek. After some tears and cuddling she was determined to walk some more, all by herself. So we led her onto the grass and there she took some more tumbles, with softer landings.

More tumbling can be found at Mama Says Om this week.
