A Gigi Moment: The Research Paper

My daughter, who has attained the ripe old age of 13, recently wrote a research paper on FDR, which I didn't see until she brought it home (as she wanted to write it without hindrance from her pushy mother). She received an "A" on it - which makes us all proud - but I wish I could have seen her teacher's expression when she read the first sentence:

Did you know Franklin Delano Roosevelt had five children and thirteen grandchildren? This was but one of his many accomplishments!

I spewed my orange juice all over the table.

Thanks for stopping and have a blessed day!

A Gigi Moment: The Broken Leg I wrote yesterday's post on Sunday while basking under the warm sun. Little did I know that in just a few short hours, I'd be in the St. Francis emergency room fading under the cold florescent lights. Gigi had earlier felt the need to dance while warming up some stew for dinner, and... well, apparently she slipped and fell, dropping all of her weight onto her in-turned left ankle. Which is exactly what happened to me 17 years ago (same ankle, anyway, different circumstances). I had broken my leg, and I was hoping my suspicions that Gigi had done the same were unfounded. I was really hoping I'd just racked up a $200 ER co-pay for nothing. Alas, this was not the case. Not only had Gigi broken her leg, she had broken into the growth plate. Although I had never been formally introduced to the subject, my mommy superpowers...
