Things that make your heart stop

Moments ago I walked into the living room just in time to see Eli stand up on the loveseat (which is about 2 ft. away from the coffee table), yell "Fly!", and take a running jump off of the couch. With images of broken legs and head injuries going through my mind, I raced over and caught him in mid-air. The cushions are now on the floor, the coffee table is on the other side of the room, and Eli is happily doing pratt falls on each of the cushions.

Must be a boy thing.

  • I just had one of those moments myself. I was in the other room and I heard a "creak" - the basement door! I ran in the next room and Zach had opened the door (it must not have been shut all the way) and was just sitting there at the top! I have a feeling that Zach will be as adventurous as Eli - he is already quite fearless!
