That's what the Emergency Room doctor said as he explained to us how it was that Emily seemed to be fine after free-falling five feet to the (cement) basement floor late this morning. When I met Lee and Emily at the hospital, she was quiet and lethargic but by the time the doctor arrived, she was back to normal. After a short conversation with her and a check of her vitals - and ability to jump - he cleared her to go home. Although today was probably the most freaked out Lee and I have been as parents, we did give ourselves a pat on the back for the fact that this was our first emergency room visit in 4 1/2 years as parents.
What continues to astonish us is how adorable people think our girls are. When I got to the hospital, the nurses were fawning over Emily - it was ridiculous. As we were about to leave, they actually made us wait so that they could get a stuffed animal for her. If you want good service, it pays to have cute kids.
