This is Sam and her backpack. Do you see how she is leaning? It's all the weight of the backpack. Mostly it's her laptop and the crazy heavy battery. She carries this all day long. Leaning like she does. I watched her the other day and realized that when she walks, it looks like she is giving her backpack a piggy back ride. So, I decided to weigh the big, black burden: 18.5 pds. Sam weighs 65 pds. Hmmm, that might explain the leaning.Tuesday, December 2, 2008

Poor girl, She's gonna start leaning the opposite direction when she takes it off.
ReplyDeleteYou should get her a backpack on wheels - it will help her back and she will feel really fancy.
ReplyDeleteshe carries a laptop? that's some intense school going on!
ReplyDeleteThat makes my lower back hurt just to look at it! I bet a backpacker would suggest raising it. (by the way, "Grammie" is Linda Stolle! Love your blog.)
ReplyDeletePoor Girl!!! Good grief! She may have major back problems when she is older. At least she is learning!
ReplyDeleteP.S. I love the girl's new picture on the top of the blog
