I was putting away L.J's toys and trying to clear a spot in the living room for her humongous bouncer when I noticed that L.J was being extremely quiet. I turned my head and she was no longer where I sat her. I went to the kitchen and there she was. Sitting next to Rocco and his food bowls. I automatically stuck my fingers in her mouth and just as I suspected, I pulled out 3 pieces of dog food. She had them stowed away in her cheeks like a chipmunk. She had another in her hand and was ready to pop that one in. She gave me a big smile and I knew then that she was fine. I am sooo grateful that she didn't swallow any of it.
Last Friday, a friend of mine lost her one year old son to an accidental tub drowning. I can't even begin to imagine what it's like to lose a child, but when I heard about it, my heart grew heavy and the tears wouldn't stop flowing. As much as we are always cautious and making sure our babies are safe, accidents do happen. RIP Connor Bower.
