This is what happens when there are only 2 nails holding your kitchen cabinet to the wall and your son happens to pull on it while climbing up to get a plate. It was an accident and luckily no one was hurt but it sure made a VERY loud noise. I stood there in stunned silence while my children began crying and the little climber apologized profusely.
Thank heavens for my wonderful neighbor and good friend, Lindsay. I had to call someone to see this disaster and so I called her. She came over, was appropriately shocked and appalled, then promptly offered to help clean up. I didn't call her over to help with clean up, I just had to share the calamity with another adult! I tried to refuse her help but she said "too bad!" and went to get her broom. We made short work of it and threw away a box full of shattered glass. I will need to replace a few things, probably about $35 worth of plates, glasses and bowls. Could have been worse!
Now does anyone know a good handyman?
Elijah is one lucky little man! I still can't believe that mess, and that he escaped unharmed. I'm glad you called me over, you know if I had a mess like that at my house, you'd insist on helping too. That's what friends are for!
