ok so i just don't understand little children. my 1 year old and 5 year old were running circles around the coffee table. should have heard my 1 year old laughing. it was great. she stops, looks at her brother and trips over her own feet, smacking her mouth on the corner of the coffee table.
comes running to me for hugs and is crying so hard she can barely breath. then she gets down and runs right back tot what they were doing. few minutes later trips and hits her head in a different spot.
yeesh child. chase each other in a safer spot. LOL.

LOL. Ahaha...that's just too cute! I remember doing that with my cousins...I guess when you're that young...you're built like a tank and so carefree! I so miss that point in my life!

I doubt that they're built like tanks. Or maybe just some children have superhuman pain thresholds. Or extremely limited attention spans (falls, hurts face, cries, goes to play again).
I remember being young and falling while dancing. I was at a small get together at a friend's of my dad. A little girl and myself started dancing on the tile floor, holding hands and twirling around in circles. At one point, she lets go, and gets flung into a comfy, comfy couch. I get flung into a hard edged corner of a wall division, cracking my head open. I ended up getting stitches. crying gonk
To this day, I claim that incident as being the reason I dance awful. sweatdrop

I was built like a tank when I was a kid the amount of stuff that I've gone through as a kid ha ha ha I'm surprised I have less scars or permanent injuries than I swear I should have.
biggrin

I often end up looking at myself and have weird moments where I see scars that are no longer there. They are imprinted in my mind. But time (and a lot of scar revision therapy I was forced through) has made many of them disappear to the point that you really can only know a lot of them were ever there when I get out of a hot shower – as they tend to not get as flushed as the rest of me.

KarenGreen Exxos "You can jus' walked it off, that's not a real condichon." – My father; just after I had a seizure. I am always at a loss as to how people can dismiss physical problems. Some psychological and behavioral problems, like depression or asperger's, I could see someone who does not know me not picking up on them if I manage my veneer well enough... but someone who is supposed to know you? Not so much. But when it comes to tremoring, a sharp yelp, and your left eye spasming backwards in the socket before losing muscle control and crumpling in a spasming heap for almost a minute? Oh yes, that is something entirely normal that people do every day! Walk it off! It's not real! /rant Reminds me of when I was much younger and I kept telling my parents that my stomach hurt real bad and I didn't want to eat. My father kept telling me, "It's all in your head, just eat." It was so awful because I'd take like two bites and my stomach was just killing me it was so bad. Finally my father broke down and took me to a doctor. I had the beginning signs of multiple ulcers in my stomach. I dropped to 70 pounds during this time due to lack of food. I got this way because over a summer vacation, all I'd eat was microwave pizza and Fanta Orange. I was put into a very particular diet while in school: eat fatty foods every 2 hours, such as cheese, crackers, cookies, etc. I finally got healthy, but I'll still remember how he'd always say, "It's all in your head." I am sorry you had to go through that. Ulcers are definitely one of those things that I can't see someone saying is all in your head. Even being a somewhat "invisible" ailment, the symptoms are too apparent to not show something is definitely wrong. I have to admit, I smirked a little at the idea of "prescription cookies." Nom 2 snickerdoodles by mouth 12 times per day. whee

It's not real! /rant i am so sorry you have to deal with that. my oldest has hydrocephalus. sometimes we wonder how much she is really dealing with and how much is her being a drama queen. she gets bad headaches and they scare me sometimes and i feel so helpless that i don't know how to help her other than to tell her to take a nap (what i do for my migraines). and then there are times it seems like she's trying to milk it a little and isn't really hurting. but i remember my dad making fun of me for being sick a lot and i don't want her to feel like i don't care or am dismissing her pain. She should carefully consider if she does want to milk it or not. The way I see it, when you milk a medical problem, you skew the perceptions of the people around you. Then when something really bad happens, they won't be able to act appropriately – and it might lead to something serious, like they report your exaggerations as real to staff at the ER and you get 500cc of some stabilizing drug that you don't actually need and it shuts down an organ.

Aiswynd Kiev I was built like a tank when I was a kid the amount of stuff that I've gone through as a kid ha ha ha I'm surprised I have less scars or permanent injuries than I swear I should have. biggrin ugh sometimes i wonder if my 1 year old will survive or if i will survive her. she's going to give me a heart attack. she's already flipped off the back of the couch and gave herself a goose egg on her forehead. and then i went to take the garbage out , came back in and she was on top of the table. has a scar on her leg from scratching it on something and picking the scab off. we have no idea what she scratched it on but it was bad. chasing her brother and she tripped over her own feet and smacked her mouth on the coffee table. has cut her lip multiple times. heaven help me.

I'm sure both ^^ just keep in mind, we grow less resilient the older we get because the speed and amount of cell replication and production slows down... I've had no lasting or permanent nor noticeable damage and I've fallen out of a holly tree, I've stuck a metal doodad into an electric socket, slipped on water slick jagged rocks...and that's the nice injuries I've had Just remember, you'll be there if something serious does happen, just don't sweat the small stuff razz walking wounded walk away

Sammirah Teeshann i can not wait for spring and to get rid of all this sickness. mac and i have strep throat. hoping nobody else catches it. Aww, that sucks. This winter's been a bad one for sickness here. i just want to open some windows and air out the house and let the kids ouside to play. it's been so cold it hurts and we barely have any snow but lots of ice. koda already slipped and smacked his face on the ice. had a big scrape on his cheek. went to pick up mac from dance and the school parking lot was covered in ice right where the buses park and kids have to walk. our yard isn't much better. looks sunny today. maybe we'll be lucky and it will be warm enough to open the windows for a little bit.
