Day #1.......Molly woke up with a swollen eye while we where camping. Turns out, she had gotten three bug bites around that eye the night before. Poor thing!!!! She would have to tip her head up to be able to see out of the one eye because she couldn't get the one eye open enough to see out of. Day #2.....getting a little better. It took about 4 days to really go down. Then, the whole thing peeled off once it got back to normal.
We have this little corner in our kitchen that all of the kids have enjoyed playing in. Kate, most recently, has discovered this spot. She loves to hide in the corner and open the door to the cupboard so that all you can see are her piggy toes. She'll open the door and roar at you and then just giggle at her game. She gets upset when her brother or sister occupy her spot and promptly removes them from "her place". It is so cute to watch. I had to take pictures to share how cute it is.
So, anyone who knows Molly knows how timid she is. She has no interest in anything that goes fast or has any possibility to be dangerous. She has always had a big wheel like Gabe, but we have never bought her a bike because we just didn't think she was interested. My friend at work, Laura, gave us her daughter's old bike for Molly to ride. It was cute, pink, and had princesses on it. What more could a girl ask for?! All we had to do was go and buy some training wheels for it and it would be ready to ride. It took us forever to go and buy them because we kept forgetting. One day, I finally remembered and surprised Molly with a ready to ride bike. She was so excited and spent all day cruising up and down the sidewalks in the neighborhood. I thought, Finally, she is excited in something that has wheels!! Dumb mom, I forgot to teach her about the brakes, and she crashed big time! Her poor face and knee! She scratched her nose, her cheek, and above her eyebrow. So, as anyone can guess, she won't have anything to do with the bike anymore!!
