Today's Tasty Treat

There is never a dull moment at my house (just wait a few weeks, right?). This morning I gave Izzy a usual box of math manipulatives to play with while I did math with Claire. She ate one! A glass mancala stone! She started choking, vomited on the floor, her face was bright red and tears were welling up in her eyes...I started having visions of quarter extractions...and then she swallowed it and went right on playing like nothing even happened. I called my doctor who said she would be fine--it should pass right through without a problem.

Sigh.

***FYI: I linked to a previous post about Lily and Claire's ER adventures this summer. Lily's heel is just recently "healed" (ha ha). It is still tender and she insists on wearing shoes a size too big as to not put pressure on the scar tissue.

I'm having irregular heart palpitations just thinking about this incident. Goodness, Izzy. I'm glad everyone is ok. Well, her sister's each had a good scare - she couldn't be outdone.
