RE: 3SBD Contest! + The Day I Accidentally Pepper Sprayed My Daughter.

in #life7 years ago (edited)

I am really glad your daughter is ok, she is really cute. I love her smile. That really was a close one. I don't have a child but i do have younger ones. I come from a large family and i am the first of seven children, five of which are boys. You can just imagine what kind of trouble we would have cooked up while growing up. There are a lot of stories to tell. This one happened when i was twelve. I was supposed to watch the others but i was so lost in a novel when the smell of smoke alerted me to trouble. The first thing i noticed was smoke all over the sitting room. Apparently, my brothers were playing campfire in the middle of the floor. They had gotten all sorts of wood to do this. Thank goodness they didn't use kerosene or we would have been in serious trouble. A chair was so close to where they had set up 'camp'. The smoke was caused by the dry grass they had added to the pile. It really was a close one. I succeeded in hidding the event from my parents, believe me, they would have beat the living daylights out of us. Thank goodness a fire outbreak was prevented.

Oh My Gosh! I know it was a long time ago but I'm so glad you were able to save your siblings and yourself in that situation! (and stay out of trouble! ) It could have been much worse. Thank for your kind words regarding my daughter. :~)

I sometimes think that's it's more amazing not how often bad things do happen, but how often they don't. I think our Guardian Angels must be working overtime a lot of the time :~)
