breaking your fall.

ek is a monkey bar aficionado, as i think i've mentioned before. but yesterday at school, apparently she bit it on the monkey bars, because this is the conversation we had when she got home:

me: hi sweetie! how are you?
ek: mommy! i broke my fall today!
me: you did?! how did you do that?
ek: well, i broke it right here - this is my fall (gestures to her thigh).

so, be careful! you don't want your fall getting hurt...
