Neglectful Parent

Yesterday we were at a birthday party at a church playground. Michael had been watching Kate most of the time and I was chatting with the ladies. At some point, he gave her to me and I was so wrapped up in my socializing that I failed to notice that Kate had been wisked away by a younger girl (about 5) and was headed towards the spiral slide that looked similar to this.



About the time I looked up, Kate was in route down the slide in an upside down fashin, on her back- alone!! In slow- mo I bounded towards her, as fast as this prego body could take me, only to witness her little body hitting the ground. I was thinking, "I can't believe this is happening!!"

It was the first of many falls and thankfully she was okay...it was like an angel carried her to the playground floor gently, because she hardly shed a tear. It could've been quite a different outcome, and thankfully, she shot out so fast, she landed more on her back than her head!! Thank you, Jesus!
