Please keep your Children safe ... Keep "Bungee Cords" out of reach of all Children: the ones Adults use to secure tarps and other items ... Poppy saved Addy's life one Spring day when he was alerted by Addy's Sister and Brother that she was not breathing ... her Mother was in the house having just fixed Addy's hair and was now trimming her big Brother's hair ... Addy is fine now and does not put anything around her neck ... Always check the play area for dangers - Addy's MaMa
