When I Was Rushing Around
I was rushing around trying to get everyone together to take my oldest daughter (she was 6) to school. I often had her help me out because she was the oldest, often forgetting that she was little herself! I asked her if she would go get a blanket for the baby out of the dresser drawer not even thinking that the dresser wasn’t really stable and we hadn’t hooked it to the wall yet. We had been meaning to get to that… She opened the drawer and the whole dresser tumbled over on top of her. I was scared to death but thank God she was okay. I still feel like such a horrible parent for allowing it to happen. I try not to rush around so much in the morning now. I rather my daughter be a little late too school then squashed under a piece of furniture!!
