Things That I Learned Today

 

 

- Spot Shot can get an entire bottle of Pomegranate salad dressing out of the carpet.  It’s a miracle worker!

Which brings us to:

- A glass bottle of Pomegranate salad dressing does not bounce when dropped (thrown) with gusto by a toddler.  It breaks.  In a big way.

-

- Someone in Boise made the same dinner tonight as I did.  After we both reached for the same 4 ingredients at the same time, I said “Okay, what are you making?!”  Yep, lettuce wraps!! (They were delicious!)

-

- If you suspect that your toddler has a broken nose, there is nothing to be done about it until the swelling goes down.  Then, if the said nose is crooked, bring him in to the doctor.  Otherwise, good luck.

-

- I suspect that Joseph may have broken his nose.  Not crooked yet, but swollen and slightly bruised.  Some bruising around the eyes as well this evening.

 

(The swelling about an hour after hitting it on the stairs at the playground)

-

- When you have a bad nose injury, blood comes out of the MOUTH as well as the nose.

-

- A screaming toddler with a mouth and nose gushing blood draws quite a crowd at the park.

-

- Day 2 of tulips makes me just as happy as Day 1.

Maybe I will keep a set on my table all spring?

-

- Contrary to popular belief (mine), my son CAN play by himself for more than 30 seconds at a time. 

It was lovely and adorable.

-

- White Vinegar + My Eye =  

(Don’t ask.)

-

-

So, not quite the quiet day that I had envisioned this morning, but alls well that ends well, right? 

And tonight is ending very, very well.

(PS: Brian and Joseph helped eat the brownies- I swear!!)
