Oh My

The following are actual quotes, uttered by me, during a 20 minute phone conversation with my sister this afternoon:

(1) "Isabel! Please put your clothes back on! No going naked in our house!"

(2) "Who wiped A+D ointment all over the chair?"

(3) "Lily, don't get upset. Your pumpkin does look like an orange, but it is really cute. Isn't it? Very round."

(4) "I just gave Gus a whole apple. It keeps him busy for like 45 minutes or an hour. I just tell him not to choke. He eats the whole thing."

(5) "OH MY!!!! Claire! Take this towel. Put it on your forehead. Lay down on the kitchen floor. No! Don't look in the mirror! I am calling your dad!"

My sister says talking to me on the phone is like talking to someone with Turrets, constant spontaneous shouting and random conversations.

Claire is at Urgent Care right now with Chris. I insisted that they not put Dermabond on her wound and that she gets a plastic closure. They called in the plastic surgeon to do the stitches. I wonder if Christopher's collar warranted the special treatment.

I like #4. I do the same thing with Audrey, and I tell her, "No choking allowed". So far, she has obeyed.

I hope Claire's owey heals up nicely (and quickly).
