Something not to do in a confined space with your child is play a variation of Blind Man’s Bluff. Which we were doing yesterday morning, my eyes were closed, and I ended up tripping backwards over a toy and usually I’m good at catching myslf in such situations but that’s when I can see and being deprived of that sense I ended up landing in a wagon we use by the door for holding H.o.p.’s little scooter, in which happened to be also a big megablocks (legos) pirate ship and whacking the back of my head hard against the wall. One of those, “Oh, I didn’t intend for this to happen” moments, and there’s no taking it back, and you know you’re going to be in considerable pain for a while. I still have a huge bump on my noggin and a slight headache and the muscles hurt and I’m green with bruises from landing on the pirate ship and scooter and (ironically) on H.o.p.’s helmet that he uses on his scooter.<\/p>\n
