I walked my daughter to school today.
We met up with one of her friends, her Mum and her dog.
The laughed together and whizzed along on their scooters.
Everything was fine until about two minutes from the school.
The other little girl tripped and fell off onto her hands and knees.
She picked herself up, wobbled and then collapsed.
I ran and gathered her up before giving her to her Mum.
‘Stay with me.’ She commanded her six-year-old daughter.
I stood uselessly holding both scooters, my daughter and their dog.
After about three minutes the little girl recovered with no sign of confusion or injury.
Her Mum told me that it happened whenever she injured herself and sent her through the school gates.
If it had been any one of my children, I would have taken them straight to the hospital!
