The Shopping Cart Won

Okay, so Emma and I have had the “don’t climb in and out of the cart” conversation 10,000 times, and now she knows why. We were shopping at Target the other day and she went flying off the top of the cart and came down right on her head, and hard. I scooped her up and then checked to see if anyone saw. Luckily, no one was around, so I didn’t have to worry about a call from CPS. She was pretty hurt, and pretty shaken up. I watched for signs of concussion, but they never came, thank heavens. About 20 minutes later she was still whimpering, and complaining, so I started to worry. I started asking if it was still hurting, or what was going on. Emma says “No, it doesn’t hurt, I’m just worried that my bump looks stupid.” What a girl. Later that day, on our way home from lunch she proceeds to tell me, “Mom my bump is like on Tom and Jerry.” She is right. She had a huge goose egg on the back of her head and it popped up just like they do on the cartoon. What a funny girl.
