And she rolls a 1 a real life example of a fumble

I know it isnt nice to laugh at you own daughters failures, but this was toooooo funny. I know I can usually use a good laugh and some of you all might to. Plus it was so perfect of an example of a fumbled roll that Ill use it in my next game (if I ever get finished with classes)

The attack, both of my little girls were attacking my brother with the cardboard tubes that wrapping paper comes on. Despite being just under 3 & over 1 & 1/2 years old they were holding their own and had been smart enough to spread out and attack him from the sides where one swipe with his pillow wouldnt knock them both down. Eventually the younger one gets excited and gives a battle screech and charges in. In her excitement she drops the tip of the tube down where it hits the floor, slides to my brothers leg and lodges there. The end she is holding drops to just below her breast bone and then lodges there too. This of course suddenly halts the charge and like a good pole-vault lifts the little one of the ground (only a few inches but still). She then hits the ground, rolls/stumbles backward, and crashes into the love chair. While stumbling backwards her tube swings around and hits her older sister right between the eyes with enough force to surprise her and cause her to stumble backwards into the Christmas tree. Of course, this causes both my brother and I to laugh ourselves silly

One fumbled roll and an epic pillow/cardboard tube battle is reduced to flailing arms and legs and peals of laughter

Hope you all have a good week and a merry Christmas

That was a good one! You couldn't write stuff like that if you tried. That would have made a great video!

Merry Christmas to all (or whatever holiday you may celebrate)!!
