The band-aid

On Sunday morning, Saul cut his finger. It was bleeding a lot, so I slapped some Neosporin and a band-aid on it. B said "that's dangerous, he could choke on it." I said "no he won't, and anyway, I'll put a mitten on his hand so he can't get to it."

I bet you can see where this is going.

It took him approximately 5 seconds to get the mitten off and eat the band-aid. Luckily, he got it down after coughing and choking for only about 15 seconds.

We called poison control and his pediatrician. We were told to just wait for it to come out the other end.

We're still waiting.

There's nothing more humiliating then dropping your kid off at daycare and having to ask them to keep an eye out.
