On Sunday, My husband took our four children to Six Flags Over Texas. I stayed at home because I have a contracts exam the next day. My 7 year old baby also stayed at home because he was running a fever. About an hour after my husband left with the kids, I gave my baby a piggy back ride to smell the roses that bloom by the fence in our backyard. This particular rose really smells good. Like a flower doused in a bath of perfume.

On the way back into my house, I forgot to set down my baby…and I tipped on the step right by my backyard patio. I could fall on my butt, but as I was giving piggy back ride, I cannot land on my child. It seem more dangerous. So, I tried to land on my hand instead…forgetting that I was wearing shorts. My right knees scraped about 4 inches on the surface of the unfinished concrete floor. That picture about is the result. Ouch!

This is the flower. I could almost say it was worth it if my knee isn’t in so much pain right now, I couldn’t sleep.
