Dresser Dashing

A few minutes ago Tiffany called me to tell me that Kylie tipped over her dresser, and it just missed falling on her. They were preparing to go out and Mommy told Kylie that she should go get her sweater because it was a little chilly out. Kylie said “ok” and went upstairs to get one. A few minutes later Mommy heard a loud crash and Kylie crying; Mommy had no idea she could get up the stairs so fast! When she got up there she found Kylie crawling out from under her dresser! What happened was Kylie went upstairs to her room to get a sweater to put on, but she decided that she did not want to wear the one that was already out. So she tried to get a different one. Her sweaters are in the top drawer of her dresser, but she can’t quit reach them, so she needed something to stand on so she could see inside her drawer. The closest thing at hand for her to stand on was the bottom drawer of her dresser. She pulled out the bottom drawer almost all the way, then pulled out the top drawer a little less and stood on the bottom to look in the top. This offset the weight of the entire dresser and pulled it towards her, falling over with her under it. Luckily her dresser was close to her bed and so it partially landed on that, making a little cave that Kylie had fell into. When Mommy got to the room Kylie was crawling out from this little cave and crying because she was so frightened. Thankfully she was not really hurt in this accident, all that happened was a scrape on her finger. However, she did learn a very valuable lesson and will not be standing on her dresser again any time soon.
