bumps and bruises

(originally posted 10/22/07)
My son Maddox is 15 months old. He is ALL boy and likes to play rough. I've noticed over the past few months that he enjoys running full speed down the hallway from his bedroom and into the living room. The only problem is as he rounds the sofa he usually loses his balance and falls head first into the coffee table. This has resulted in MANY bumps and bruises across his forehead. What's funny is Maddox seems to forget that bump or bruise and the next time he comes down the hall, he comes running full speed and rounds the sofa only to hit his head once again. What a lesson we can learn about life from my 15 month old son. Ignore that bump on your forehead. Forget the failure or mishap of yesterday and live life full speed. If we approached everything as if we couldn't fail...what would we accomplish?? Lesson Learned, silence that bruise and run full speed!
