A fall

After M decided to try out dirt the other night, she was still playing on the deck. She was standing on the deck bench when she tried helping a little girl next to her. Except M lost her balance.

And fell down onto the bench.

And then proceeded to roll off the bench onto the deck.

And hit her head on the deck.

And scraped her knee.

The Husband and I rushed to M, but stayed on the side of the deck so that she didn't get scared about falling.

But? M stood up, brushed her knee off, and said, "I'm okay!" in THE sweetest little girl voice.

She said, "my knee!" and I kissed it. And? That was it. Not a complaint. Not a cry. Nothing.

Tough little cookie.

It may just be her Momma that needed a hug and kiss after that.
