Head Wound Harriet


I think that there are certain kids in this world that require a little extra attention.

And possibly a padded helmet.


Olivia is a little challenged when she walks. All kids her age are. But she has a certain shall we say 'special talent'. She takes it to a whole new level. Her inability to look in front of her when she's walking has given her the fun experiences all kids should have - walking into a wall, walking into a chair, walking into a post at the zoo (today's fun addition). The list goes on and on.

Every time she walks into something, leading with her head of course, I think she loses a word or two in her limited vocabulary.

Today, sadly, we lost 'no'.

We'll bury it out back with all the others.

Thankfully, 'cocoa' is hard wired so it will never be lost. Lord knows how we would cope with that loss.
