These things I’ve learned today…

October 29, 2007 by Adrienne

Today I’ve learned…

That unbreakable Corningware will break on ceramic tile. And, when these unbreakable plates break with mashed potatoes on them, it makes a massive mess.

That dried granola on ceramic tile is hard to get off. That husbands do a great job of cleaning it up!

I’ve learned that a spoonful of sour meds followed by a squirt of chocolate syrup makes for much-liked meds from one sugar-loving two year old!

I’ve found that while Sterling dislikes all things but breast milk, he likes the affects of ibuprofen. A lot. I like Sterling on ibuprofen.

I’ve discovered that a serpentine belt makes a lot of racket when it shreds, but at least now I also know what that knocking noise was – and it wasn’t in the motor.

I’ve learned the feel of embarrassment when meeting a new doctor while I was nursing – and my two daughters were “nursing” their babies beside me. His comment? “Looks like a party going on in here!”

I’ll try to be brief. An introduction. →
