When I said I knew my child was a klutz, I wasn’t kidding. Tonight, Gracie hurt herself sitting on the toilet. Seriously – she has a pretty bad bruise and cut on the inside of her thigh. How does a child manage to do this, you ask? Well, it helps to be both gifted and talented and mighty klutzy. Then, all she has to do is accidentally lift up the toilet seat a teeeeeeensy bit and then when she sits down, a bit of skin has to be trapped under the toilet seat. At this point, said klutzy child will commence screaming.
No, I’m not kidding.
Yes, I actually took a picture. I’ve become That Mom.
An excellent example of a klutzy kind of accident (versus getting a shovel to the face because a riled up classroom full of children isn’t being properly supervised. Ahem.) and one that happens all the freaking time around here.
Thank god it’s my weekend off because I need to stock up on band-aids and ace bandages! I hope your weekend is full of much more exciting plans than mine. Heh.

If it makes you feel better, I believe both of my children have had similar toilet accidents.
Hang in there. Enjoy your weekend.
