Parker's First Earthquake
A 4.9 out of Yucaipa woke Frankie from his afternoon nap but Parker, safe in my arms, didn't notice a thing. (Talk about a native Californian.) At the time, I was trying to get the little guy to take a nap himself but when the earth started shaking I took a detour to the nearest doorway. By the time I got there, the quake was over.
I like how the look on his face is more "um...mom....uh...why are we in the doorway? And why did you stop the bouncing? I like the bouncing..."
ReplyDeleteAlso, they now say "don't go to the doorway." You're supposed to go under a table or next to one to create a triangle between you and falling furniture. They say no doorway in case the building shifts with you right within the structure of it.
