My nightstand is home to many things: books, hair ties, clips, binkies, and lately a sleep mask. I bought it when pregnant with Isabel and just recently rediscovered it while trying to nap. Because? Summer sunlight and heat made hiding under a pillow impossible.
The other day Abigail found it.
You bet she put it on.
And, naturally, took a walk.
I started saying "Abby! Abby stop!" But she just giggled. And completely ignored me.
And then? There was a loud thwack of her head against the door frame and the thud as she sat down hard. She was splayed out on the floor for a full 5 seconds completely bewildered before she started howling. I scooped her up and hugged her until the crying tapered off. Then we talked about how maybe? Walking with a blindfold on? Not such a good idea.
You might think that would make an impact on her?
Nope.
The sleep mask? Too much fun, apparently. She put it on again and took off in great big strides. I was barely able to grab it off her head before she slammed into the foot board of our bed.
Of course.
The mask? Now? In it's new home: on top of the TALL dresser.
