Jillian's Journal

I managed to say the word outside today. Not real clearly, but pretty close. I’m always trying to go outside. I’m just not tall enough to open the door yet. I love it out there. I don’t know why these grownups spend so much time indoors. God made the outside a lot better than any house a man can make. So lets go outside more. There are dangers out there though. I skinned my knee for the first time. I was walking with Daddy on the sidewalk and I fell down. I felt a burning sensation on my right knee, and looked down and saw a little red round patch where the skin had been scratched off. I’ve had a few minor bruises from learning how to walk and bumping into things, however, this was the first time I broke the skin. It wasn’t that bad, I just winced and cried a second or two, then got right back up and kept walking!
