Paige is usually my little princess but she is developing a penchant for trouble making just like her older brother. Amidst the preparation for pork chops tonight (yes…I know meat isn’t very Zen - trying to break that habit) Paige pulled the styrofoam plate the pork chops sit on, out of the garbage where I had tossed it. It had roughly a cup of bloody juice in it and she proceeded to pour the contents over her head before I could stop her. Aaaaaack! She was dripping head to toe in nasty, dark red blood and meat juice. It was in her eyes and nose and all throughout her hair. The little miss didn’t seem to care much but I was absolutely horrified, thoughts of e-coli going through my mind. It took over an hour to clean up the kitchen and give her a bath, so dinner was quite late. Thank goodness that Paige’s pink strappy sandals came clean or we would have been in BIG trouble. Her brother thought the whole thing was absolutley hilarious and now as I write this I think he may have been on to something. Guess it is not so funny at the time, when you have to clean up the mess, but I can already conjure up a little smile when I think about it. Everyday brings a little lesson when you have kids.
