The Fall Alouette

The hammock invites Fantasy of flight. Not now though, small boy in tow "Grangee, watch me play I'll dump fresh mowed hay," His imagination grows Cat and dog take place At my sides in space. Hammock starts to slip and slide. Scat cat; shoo away dog before doomsday. Zip, flip onto the floor bruised pride
Sponsor: Andrea Dietrich Contest: A Lovely Alouette Written: September 05, 2014 I fell out of the hammock yesterday my head hit the wall with a very hard blow..I am having headaches and neck pain as well as low spinal problems since the fall.."Pride goeth before destruction and a haughty spirit before a fall" Proverbs 16:18.. I wonder what God wants me to learn..

Oh Sara, you will forever have a memory of your accidental fall with this unique Alouette. I hope you will be okay. I know how you feel. I was on crutches after breaking four bones in my foot and I fell down the stairs hurting my head,neck and shoulder and knee injuring my big toe on my good foot. How can one little fall do so much damage? It was easy. Lol. Congrats on your win. God Bless, Connie

Harry, Thanks for the encouraging and inspiring comments..A wee boy told me, "I know what to do in case of an emergency"..I said, "What do you do in case of an emergency call 911?"..He said, "I know what to do in case of an emergency go get momma"..Sara
