run run... pain

i got a call from the childcare after lunch - was told that chloe had a fall in the bathroom and knocked her forehead. reason given by her teacher was that she was running/chasing one of her classmates on the slippery floor while the teacher and another assistant were giving another few kids their bath at that time.

i can only blame my notti gal for doing what she's NOT suppose to do.
but took comfort when the teacher told me that chloe didn't cry at all. she just got up by herself and then went to tell the teacher her head 'pain'. they immediately applied cold pack and later on, rubbed some 'zambuk' onto the bump; which eventually subsided by the time i saw her at home that evening. there was still a little red patch on the bump.

i asked her what happened.
she just casually said : run, run and fall. head pain pain.
i asked did the other kids run too? she said no.
then i told her not to run in the shower area as the floor is slippery, and she will fall again if she do that. she said ok and then continued eating her dinner.

i try not to make such a big fuss about it this time round. last time i used to keep asking/probing about the little accidents that she had while in childcare; and she'd end up remembering it too much that even after a week, she'd still point to that spot and said "PAIN".

hopefully she learnt her lesson this time round.
but i'm sure she will - as she told me this just before her bedtime:
"mamii, floor wet wet, cannot run, okie?" :)
