Friday after daycare I gave mom the scare of her life (well, probably the first in a row of parent nightmares). We just got home and were planning to hop out again for a game of soccer before dinner when mom finally got notice from our internet provider to solve our broken connection. While she was on the phone trying all kinds of tricks with wires and re-sets I found an interesting little box in her office drawer, containing razor sharp Stanley-knife refills. Mom dropped the phone and I dropped the box but withing the same second I managed to grab one of those knives and refused to give it back. Well... you can imagine what happened next. Blood everywhere, mom hysterical, ambulance called - turned out a bit over dramatic but mom had envisioned much worse damage. Never the less we spend the rest of the evening in the hospital, where we were kept waiting for 3,5 hours just to learn that the ambulance doctor's fix was sufficient. My middle finger has a nasty cut so I have to play with one hand and the worse bit is I don't get to play with water for a couple of days but apart from that we're all good and recovered from the shock. I guess next time it's wise considering actually listening to what mom says, especially when she gets that panic look on her face ;-)
ps. all sharp and even semi sharp objects have been stored in the highest possible places in the house by now.
