Today I was lying on the bed next to Mama while Papa was at work and I decided to have a look over the edge of the bed. Mama usually doesn’t let me do this but seing as she was asleep I took my chances and had a little peek. I guess I got a little bit too close to the edge and the next thing I knew I was taking a really, really deep breath, changing colour and then screaming like a cut pig. Of course Mama woke up about the time I started to scream and she was pretty upset. She picked me up telling me something about how silly I was and then called Papa. Papa raced home from work and we all went to the hospital to show people there what I had done. Luckily the doctors were all on my side and said that I could go home and that I was all right.
