First hurt while playing

Yesterday - 12/12/11 Maya has her first hurt while playing. She was running around in our hall and fell on her face while she was walking towards us. Her teeth struck against her lips and started bleeding a little. A very little I guess, but both me and Uday were shocked and it broke our hearts. May be we will get used to it in due course when she starts playing much more. A sweet sport that she is, she immediately became ok when we took her to the tap and she started playing with water. While I was pressing water very softly against her lips, hoping she wouldnt notice, I couldnt help but think how much more hurt parents get when children get hurt and how my mother would have felt when I was bleeding profusely during my epidural injection. That small wound of mayas stayed in my mind for a long time. I wish I can be as sportive as her and be what I would like to call, a cool mom! Let me see how it goes.
