I could see Gretl outside as she was playing on the back patio, drawing pictures with chalk. I had to leave the kitchen for a minute, though, and stopped thinking about her for a minute. Luckily, the Captain went outside for some reason, and heard a little voice, saying, "Help, Somebody! Somebody help me. Help!"
While I wasn't looking, Gretl had climbed up on a pile of lumber and somehow managed to get out on a piece sticking out from the others. She was holding on to the branches of a tree, but they were sure little branches! Just right for little hands, but I don't think they would have held her if she had lost her balance.
I am truly grateful for God's hand in keeping my baby girl from falling and in bringing her dad outside to help her.
