Before retiring for bed I always check my glider room to make sure all
is
well. When I opened the door I could hear my gliders chirpping away as
they were still eating. I flipped on the light and as I surveyed the room
all
appeared to be fine. About to leave the room I stopped first to check on
two
families who just had little ones come oop. 2 days prior. When I checked
on Snickers and YumYum they were snuggled in their pouch. I glanced at
the food dishes and was horrified. Inside the dish was a new baby who
had fallen into the small dish of the Leadbeaters. The little one was on
its
side and just laying there. As I picked the baby out it was moving but
was
cold. I quickly took her to the kitchen and rinsed her off with warm water
and then dried her off with a towel. Oh, she was so cold. I returned her
to
the parents in their pouch and noticed Mom had Leadbeaters splattered
on her face. She had apparently been trying to get the baby out but it
was
so slippery that her attempts had failed. If the dish of Leadbeaters had
been just a teaspoonful more the little girl would have drowned. Her little
nose was barely out of the mix and had I not checked to see all was well
the baby would have eventually drowned or would have died from being
too cold.
Someone from above was watching over her. I wonder if it could have
been my Lil Gremlin.
