lol. There is a story we read before bedtime sometimes about a clumsy bear and Veronika totally identifies with him because he's just like her! She said the other day, "I wish I was Natasha so I wasn't so clumsy!"
By clumsy I just mean... she walks, walks, walks... she trips on a rock/stroller wheel/wall/nothing... she falls. A few days ago she tripped on a rock on our way home from dance class and ripped her nice black pants right on the knee... where it's impossible to fix it! Got a giant hole. Then today at the playground she fell again, and the same thing happened! Got a hole in her black tights, again on the knee.
Every few days something would happen. She would drop a heavy book on her toe. Or step on a lego. She isn't happy when it happens, but she always laughs after the fact. Natasha is a lot more 'graceful' and careful than she is!!!
Anyone else?

LOL! Danny is plenty clumsy, but he comes by it legitimately thanks to his muscle tone stuff. It doesn't bother him, at least - he just bounces right up/back/whatever and keeps going!
LOL, well if we're talking about the moms, I'm a huge klutz as well! DH isn't much better. Eric is fairly coordinated, and we have NO idea where it came from!
Mia and I are clumsy and constantly getting hurt, but Addy rarely trips. I feel so bad for Mia that she took after me! My coordination is fine for sports, etc. Poor Veronika to notice that it is just happening to her!
Kate is very good, she's always been very careful about where she puts her feet, how she does things, keeping her balance. She gets upset when she accidentally trips, lol.

“Motherhood is a choice you make everyday, to put someone else's happiness and well-being ahead of your own, to teach the hard lessons, to do the right thing even when you're not sure what the right thing is...and to forgive yourself, over and over again, for doing everything wrong.”
