June's swimming lesson

Today has been a crazy day. Sometimes in the chaos we miss things or accidentally overlook things. Today in my normal chaos in trying to do my standard of accomplishing too much in one day June almost drowned. She joined grandpa as an injured.


I was experimenting with a Mr. Clean Magic Eraser and quite shocked at the result. Maddie was following me around the house as I experimented. While this was going on I had home-made applesuce brewing on the top of the stove, a chicken roasting in the oven, Katie and Jack were working on some school work. Basically I was all over the downstairs of the house. Suddenly I realized I had gone most of the day without going to the bathroom and I had to go RIGHT NOW. As I lifted the toilet seat this is what I found.





Meet June. She is a character from Disney's Little Einstien's and Maddie dropped her in the toilet. She is about the size of a Fisher-Price Little People. So now before I could go I had to run to the kitchen and find something to fish June out before I turned her yellow. See June under normal circumstances.
A couple days ago Phil got a call from a woman who claimed her toilet was backing up. When Phil got to the house he forwarned the woman that it was very possible that one of her boys flushed a toy down the toilet. She was aboslutely positive that that DID NOT happen. That was until Phil handed her a toy ball he pulled from the toilet. She was speechless.

I am usually very conscience about the bathrooms, the kids and who is in the vicinity of one in the house. Not sure how I missed that one today. Needless to say, June has been sanitized and returned to the rocket with the rest of the Little Einstiens. All is right in the world again.

Have a great weekend!

Poor June! At least your little person did not suffer the same fate as the "grandpa" that was strategically placed on the pilot light in my fireplace and received 26th degree burns on 70% of his body....right Anna?
