just a sliver

Emma makes me laugh. I was vacuuming and she comes up to me and says "Mom, I have something in my foot." There was no alarm in her voice and so I figured it was just a little sliver of wood or something small. I tell her that I will come look at it when I am done. About five minutes later I come over to take a look at her sliver and this is what I found...

That ain't no sliver...it is a hinge off of a hair clip. My goodness she wasn't even alarmed. I would have freaked out but she just nonchalantly said "hey look at this piece of metal in my foot." The funny thing though...she would not let me pull it out. Every time I went near her foot she would scream and pull it away. She had to pull it out herself. Brave little princess.

Wow! I am impressed how brave Emma is. If that happened to Anneka I believe you would have heard her wailing all the way at your house!!

I didn't know you get into Lagoon free or I totally would have called. I knew you had just gone twice and didn't want to make you feel obligated since it is dang expensive. :( Next time for sure!! Although I think my head is still spinning!! jk But it sure makes you feel your age if you know what I mean!!

I can't believe there was no screaming! If that happened to Tara the entire neighborhood would have know in 2 seconds flat!

Nice job Emma!
