Guardian Angels Abound

Right now Grant and Abby Kate are playing "Hospital" in which each of them suffers a series of ever more gruesome injuries that some doctor at the hospital is going to have to fix. Listening to them, you get a real sense of their sophistication -- Abby Kate just said she's going to need an emergency appendectomy, while Grant responded by saying "I got my head SLICED!!"

They are confined to the house this morning for getting into a container of DEET bug wipes and rubbing them all over themselves. Honestly, if they live through childhood without serious neurological injury, it will be a miracle. The fact that the bug wipes were within their reach I blame entirely on Tim.

Of course, keeping them in the house is also a bit of a punishment for Mom. Since Dad's the real culprit here, it would be more appropriate to send them to work with their daddy for the morning. That would teach him not to leave the wipes out.
