Can we just go one month

without something major happening?

My morning started out quite nice. I had an hour long massage at 9 and then a manicure and then a haircut. I came home and hung out with Mags and Liam while Bob took Lorelei and Molly to McDonalds. Then I took Mags back to the hairdressers to fix my hair and then to the grocery store.

While I was at the grocery store, I got a call from Bob saying, "You need to come home now! Liam is choking on something and I can't get it out. He can still breathe, but just barely." So I left the cart, ran Maggie to the van and sped home. While I was pulling into the driveway, Liam finally choked out the butterfly pendant that he'd had lodged in his throat for the past 10 minutes. Bob said he'd actually stopped breathing for 20 seconds or so. I held him for a while and he was pretty lethargic and gurgley, so we decided I should take him to the clinic to get checked out. After we'd been there an hour, he started to perk up and the doctor said he looks ok, although his throat will probably be sore for a few days.

All my morning relaxation, down the drain!! But I'm so grateful to have my baby boy. All the way home I was praying, "God, please protect my son. Please let him get the object out by the time I get home." And God answered exactly that! :) The girls were pretty scared, so I'm hoping they've learned a bit of a lesson about picking up their small things...

About my hair. She got about half of it right the first time and I had to get her to fix the other half. It looks ok now, but it's at least 1/2 an inch shorter than I would have liked. Oh well, it will grow. And it will be a while before I need another hair cut! :)

ttfn. Bob's at the store and I have a date with Captain Picard.
