Free as a Bird

Should I be at all concerned that my little boy's favorite pastime is perching himself on the edge of our highest kitchen chair,.....


launching himself into the air.....
And laughing with reckless abandon just before he smashes into the hardwood floor?

Good thing he's so darn cute, because he gives me approximately one million heart attacks every day.

What a daring boy!!! Way to capture it on camera, I'm sure that wasn't easy to do, but it'll be fun to show him when he's older.

Well, he does have a blanket laid out, after all.

I did belly flops onto the hard floor up until I was about 12. Oh and jumped onto my knees (I will demonstrate that for you soon).

Cute son! And no, I don't really like HK's other stuff. It's too adult...grown up. Her sequel to Zippy, She Got up Off the Couch is a definite worthwhile read, though. I wish she would do more memiors.

Naw...don't be concerned..he just might have lasting effects from all the greenstick fractures he is most likely acquiring from slamming into the floor..but I am sure the other kids won't make fun of him walking like a duck for the rest of his life.
