So to write about my miracle today I have to admit to a dumb parent moment. I ask that you don't judge too harshly as I am aware of my stupidity and I also have a head cold which makes it so I am lucky if I remember the day and my own name. So, because of said head cold I needed to blow my nose badly and so I put our baby in our window seat believing that I would be back long before she could ever think of rolling off it. What happened? Yes, you are correct in believing that she did, in fact, move that quickly. I walked into the room in enough time to yell "NO!" at no one in particular and watch her slide off. I was at her side about the time she made contact with the floor. To my relief and by the grace of a loving Father who understands the impairment of thinking when you have a head cold, she was fine. Not even a bump on her head. She slide softly off the cushion and then landed in such a way that her shoulder cushioned her fall. It's really not that far of a fall from our seat to the floor but I am so grateful she was not injured even slightly. Now, we were both scared out of our senses and took a bit to get calm again but she is healthy and happy still. I am grateful The Lord is there to fill in when I falter. Will I make a dumb parent move again? Yes, I am human. We all make dumb mistakes. How blessed we are to be watched over and protected by a loving Father, who does not make mistakes, for our sake and those we love.
God Loves You!
Heather
