Today started out with me having to get me and Sadie ready for the gym. I received a phone call about 7:30 from Lana saying that he school bag is still at our house...and this is one of the first times that I haven't been able to take her to school. So she asked me if I could drop it off at school for her. I told her I would....Strike one.
Sadie and I then went on to the gym so I could work in the child care. We had a pretty good morning then she was starting to get really cranky around 11:30. It was for sure nap time for my little mess. She is a creature of habit, no doubt, and likes to be at home in her swing to take a nap. Well, after work we had a little meeting with the child care workers and it didn't last very long so I was ready to get Sadie home for a nap. I sat Sadie in a chair so that I could grab all of my things....and even as I was doing it...I knew it was a bad idea. But I sat her down turned for not even a second and when I turned back around I saw little Miss Sadie's feet flying in the air. The child landed on her head. She cried, I wanted to cry. I still feel HORRIBLE. I knew better but yet did it anyway.
She had calmed herself before we even left the gym but she now has a little bruise and a knot on her little head! When we got home she crashed and then I was worried that she might have a concussion so I would go in her room about every 15-20 minutes and either thumb her foot or put my hand on her tummy to make sure she was still breathing.
I then began to contemplate what I would do if I tried to wake her up and she was in a coma.
No worries, she's fine. I think that maybe she's even forgiven me. Thank goodness she won't remember it...not because she hit her head and lost her memory but because she's too little...right...
I'm going to now, hang my head in shame and hold on to the hope that maybe the Mother of the Year award will still be in my future.
