I was almost one son short today (yes, bead related!)
Well this family almost lost it's youngest (soon to be 3 year old if he
makes it that far) son. Home alone with them while DH was helping a friend. Fell asleep (oops on my part) Woke up and noticed kids were in my bedroom (where my beading/etc desk is) and the youngest had opened all of my purple seed beads (well, almost all), emptied them out on the carpeted floor AND peed on my desk (fortunately it was reasonably clean) Lucky for him I was able to control myself and let him live but now I'm stuck with a big dish of 15 different colors of purple to sort. Just what I was looking forward to doing over the next couple of days!!!! And they all came out of mostly full 2x3" ziplog baggies. AURGH!!!!!! But it could have been worse and been ALL my beads instead of just the purples. Hopefully someone will get a chuckle out of this. Looking back, I probably will. And if it had happened to anyone else I'd probably be a little amused. Oh, my aching neck!!

When she woke up she found my niece sitting in a puddle on the bathroom floor. The puddle consisted of all the shampoo the little tyke could reach, plus all the baby oil and baby powder. She had also found 3 or 4 tubes of lipstick and drawn all over herself, the walls and floor with them. Wanna guess how many gallons of water it took to remove all that gunk? How well I remember the trials and tribulations of a toddler with boundless energy and an exhausted mother..... so glad mine are in their 20s now.....

Sounds like he needs to be the poster child for child abuse. LOL

will. And if it had happened to anyone else I'd probably be a little amused. Oh, my aching neck!! I am, I'm chuckling away. And now I have to share, even if it is a little gross. When my brother was a baby, he used to rock - anything, but he would rock the crib, which was on a hard wood floor. So this one time, he woke up from a nap with a full diaper, rocked the crib across the room, decorating the wall as he went. He finally reached the dresser on the other side of the room where the corn starch was and opened that and shook it hard. My mother finally went in to him to see why he was so quiet and she screamed bloody murder. I seriously thought he was bleeding, that's how loud she screamed (I was probably 4 1/2) She said the corn starch was so thick in the air, she couldn't even see where the baby was. She didn't even know what to clean first! I'm convinced that he is the reason I only wanted girls. LOL. Cheri (Bubbee to Emily and Nathan) |

Helen,
OMG! I'm sorry about the pain it will be to sort the beads, but aren't kids the darnest? Thank you for the chuckle. Starlia "Helen C" wrote in message news:Ae_gc.29587$ru4.29731@attbi_s52...
