Mabel the Tornado

Being able to walk at a relatively young age has allowed Mabel to constantly find trouble. She likes to mimic behavior that she considers 'big'. Within micro-seconds she can get herself into some difficult situations. Thus, today she hurt herself several times. First, she climbed up on the foot stool in the kitchen to copy her brother Gavyn who likes jumping off the top. She dove off on her head. Later, she found the surgical instrument that her dad had been working with all morning and had left under the couch. While it likely weighs as much as she does, she lifted it and tried to carry it like her father. Its weight made her fall, causing her to gouge herself in the forehead. Last, while playing with the family this evening in the backyard, she shuffled over to join the kids on the tramp but fell through the springs and into the pit, landing on her face.
