"Okay, what's the surprise?" Lizzy finally asked.
"Show her, mommy," Susan said. "Please."
Edie went to the step and started to do her act and Lizzy jumped off her chair and screamed and went to pick up Edie. Edie fell on her side and hurt herself but after a couple minutes she was fine.
"What are you trying to do, kill yourself? Lord, girl, do you want to go to the hospital again?"
"I will if you don't let me alone. I'm trying to show you something I taught myself. Now leave me alone."
Edie got up in the chair by herself and started again. She went down to the floor and back to the chair. It was clumsy but she did it. And her mother was in awe.
