So my oldest son, Jordan, just turned 7 Feb 24th. A day before his birthday i took him and Zane to McDonald's to play. He always climbs on the outside of the railing going down the stairs into play land. At the bottom of the stairs is a metal bench. Somehow he slipped in between the rail and the metal bench, it is such a small space i really am not sure how he did it. He was so stuck and it took 2o min to get him out. I helped an employee take apart the bench. He was very sore, bruised and embarrassed but i don't think he will be doing that again anytime soon. At least he can honestly say "I did that when i was 6 Mom" :) Such a long time ago :) We went back there a couple days later and Zane and Ethan (17month old nephew), who witnessed the whole thing, are inspecting the bench and "talking" to each other. They were very focused for quite some time trying to figure out how to get the screws on the side of the bench undone. They gave up after a while and went off to play... kids are so cute :)
FOR RICHER OR POORER, IN SICKNESS AND IN HEALTH, TO LOVE AND TO CHERISH, TILL DEATH DO US PART!
Acckkk! That reminds me of the time when Des got stuck behind and underneath the steps of the bleachers in her indoor soccer gym.
ReplyDeleteOh, the suffering... She was so scared, so freaked out. One of the other parents was a tiny man from Thailand who probably weighs 88 pounds soaking wet. He crawled like a circus-boy, through the crack in the steps and sat with her while I figured out how to muscle the whole dang thing apart and get her out.
Ah, kidz....
Give Jordan a massive hug from his Aunti Ti! And a big raspberry for Zane's (adorable) tummy...
