Some days are ice cream days and some days are emergency room days--only in our family we like to fit them both in together...what a day! It started with our rough and tumble eldest daughter meeting her match on the monkey bars. Our take away lesson from this: if you decide to eat macaroni and cheese with your bare hands (wha?) it is a good idea to wash before trying to swing across the monkey bars. Thankfully, she had already worked this out, and informed me of it after we picked her up from school. Oh, did I mention the children started school. Yes, it is only day three, but they are really enjoying it (aside from the unfortunate monkey bar incident). But I guess the silver lining is that our trip across the border to the doctor also included a stop at a Baskin Robins and a lollypop from the nice doctor.
