How in blazes could this have happened? Someone wasn't watching these children. How awful.
Lots of prayers for this little girl.
>>Someone wasn't watching these children.<<
Stupid mistakes happen. These kids were 3 & 2. Mom may have gone to the bathroom. We have to do that sometimes. Someone stupidly left a steak knife around. It may have been as innocent as it was dropped while the dinner dishes were being cleared and the person who was bringing them from the table thought he/she got everything dropped.
Tragic things happen all the time. It is not always neglect.
God Bless this family.
