Around 2:00 am on May 6th I was carrying Addie from her room after she had awakened. I was taking her downstairs where we have often laid on our bean bag until she fell asleep and I could put her back in bed. As I took the first step on our stairs, I overstepped the stair, slipped, and started to fall. I remember that my concern was to hold on to Addie, but for some reason, I didn't. I fell a short distance to our landing, Addie fell over the railing and fell to the tile floor below; at least 12 feet high. Addie appears to have hit something (I believe a cabinet door that was open) that gave her a gash on her right cheek with some bruising. Miraculously, she has proven to us ever since that the gash was the only injury she had. She seems alert, involved, and perfectly normal. We know that Heavenly Father's hand played a role in her safety.
Here are a few pictures. The bottom is from the folloing day. The top left was taken a week after. The last one was taken 3 weeks after the accident.
