Close call

Levi wanted to get out some markers and color this afternoon. So he proceeded to open every drawer in the filing cabinet, even though he knows all the markers are in the top drawer. Ever opened all the drawers in a filing cabinet at the same time? Paige was downstairs and heard a huge crash, and then Ella screaming. She barrelled upstairs and found Levi on his belly with the entire filing cabinet on top of his back. Paige lifted the cabinet up enough to get him loose, but couldn't pull him out at the same time. So Ella, crying the whole time, dragged Levi out by his legs. Luckily he must have seen it coming, and tried to dive out of the way, because he managed to get his head out of the path of the falling cabinet. He's got some big red marks on his back, and one on his head, but otherwise no permanent damage.

This is how I found the file cabinet when I got home. My guess it that it weighs around 200 pounds.


Luke was upstairs too, but thankfully on the other side of the room. That thing would have squashed him flat.
