As a 4-year-old, life is pretty easy. You have very few responsibilities and often times you get to spend most of your day playing games.

One of the most exciting things about being a young kid is learning about the world and experiencing new things.

Something as simple as standing in the rain for the first time or playing in the sand at the beach can teach them so much about the world that they are living in.

However, sometimes life lessons are forced upon you when you least expect them.

Take this adorable little girl for example.

As she makes her way to her front door in the heavy winds that are taking place in her neighborhood, this little girl is about to learn a thing or two about how much power the wind is capable of producing.

She skips from the car to her front door with a cell phone in her hand.

When she reaches the door, she gives the handle a twist like she’s done a thousand times before.

Only this time, she’s in for the ride of her life.

As she turns the handle, a gust of wind sweeps the door open, flinging this little girl through the air.

But she’s a smart little girl.

Luckily, she has the presence of mind to continue holding onto the handle.

Whether she knowingly did this or was simply reacting, this little girl did a great job not letting go as the wind whipped her around the side of the house.

She didn’t even drop the phone.

From the car, her mom saw what was going on and ran over to help her daughter. Luckily, she didn’t have to do much since the girl was able to keep herself safe.

The wind was wreaking havoc.

When this event took place, the winds were blowing so hard in some areas that people weren’t even able to walk against the wind.

In New Hampshire, one man slipped and slid down the road, unable to stand in the strong gusts that were flowing through the area.

Luckily for that little girl, the winds weren’t blowing as hard at her house as they were elsewhere or she may have had a harder time holding on.

She is lucky this was caught on camera.

So much of your young life is forgotten as you age so being able to watch a memory like this may keep it fresh in her mind as she gets older.

No doubt she’ll be getting a laugh out of this video any time that she sees it in the future.

And because she was unharmed, her mom can enjoy it as well.

Although when it was happening, she was probably terrified.
