#85 - Only some bruises

I had a pretty scary fall this weekend...I was checking on the girls in the middle of the night and passed out at the top of these stairs.

I then proceeded to fall down the entire staircase and landed on the nice, soft, marble floor.

I am so thankful that I only suffer from some pretty nasty bruises - it could have been much worse.

Why did I pass out? We have a motion detector light inside our house...we woke up and found that it was on so we were concerned someone might have broken in. I shot out of bed to go check on the girls. I'm sure the combination of getting up too quickly, and my adrenaline rushing is what caused me to pass out.

No one was in the house.

Like I said, I'm thankful God protected me from much worse. Next time, I hope He also protects me from the stairs!
