Poison

No, this is not an ode to Bell Biv Devoe. I took Hope to work this morning because my babysitter is on vacation and Nonnie's flight didn't get in until 10am. While I was working on a project Hope busied herself with items in this office- markers, paper, index cards, and a little black plastic triangular dish that she found on the window sill. And here is where we ended up...









I discovered after about 30-45 min that the black dish was labeled POISON. The washU EMTs and environmental health mob showed up and insisted we take a trip next door to Children's ER even though I wasn't sure she had even ingested the poison-- better safe than sorry. Hopefully the 48 hour blood tests will be clear and all will be well. Hope was exhausted after the fiasco was over...

Oh, my! What a scare! How is Hope and her mom doing today? Hopefully you are both back to normal. Take care.
