So the day started off great with Lindie cutting her first tooth and having playgroup at my house. Plus, the rain clouds had moved on and the sun was out and it was a gorgeous day! So, after all our little friends left and I had fed Lindie I decided that we should go take a walk around the neighborhood. I got Lindie all ready to go and put her in her car seat and then went to wrestle Brennen out of his pj's and into some normal clothes. While wrestling with him I heard a loud crash and turned around to see the car seat upside down on the hard, tile, kitchen floor! I FREAKED out! I have never in my life been so freaked out. I started crying as I ran to pick Lindie up and she was screaming and then Brennen joined in. I had NO idea what to do. Her little forehead started to swell up and thankfully after a couple of minutes of holding her she calmed down but I was still freaking out thinking I had just killed my daughter or permanently brain damaged her or ruined her for life. I have never had that feeling of COMPLETE dread and fear come over me. I just kept praying to Heavenly Father that she be ok. Thankfully my friend, Jenny, was home when I called (she has two boys and a daughter the same age as Lindie and her husband is a doctor) thinking she would know what to do, since I really wasn't able to think straight, and thankfully, her husband was also home. So I ran over to their house so he could check her out and let me know what I needed to do. After he checked her over he said she was ok and gave me a list of things to watch for. I felt so relieved that she was alright. I just wish I knew how she managed to knock the car seat off the table! Needless to say my nerves are shot and I'm an emotional mess. This was definitely one of those days I really needed Scott, just for his emotional strength and support.
