Yesterday I was picking pears when it started to rain a bit. Jim and Kalista were in the house. I was trying to reach those last few that were so close yet soooo far away......
when I slipped.
My leg went through the ladder and so I have a huge goose egg on my shin on one side and my ankle is bruised on the other side. It is quite a miracle that I didn't break it. I had a stick puncture the back side of my other leg so there is no possible way to sleep that is comfortable.
As I was laying there in the orchard with the ladder on top of me and the rain hitting me in the face I heard "Mom... BOOM! BOOM!".
Bless her heart she must have seen me fall and come to help me. It did help to have some one to hang out with while I composed myself enough to get to the house. She sat there with me and petted my hair and kissed my forehead. Even though I was crying she made me laugh with all the talk of the "big KaBoom". The more I laughed the more dramatic the story got.
Kalista has been my biggest helper today. She has cuddled with me and shared with me. She even filled my bath tub up with Barbies and ponies.
I'm so lucky to be taken care of by an Angel!
