Pooping It Out
Liza greeted us Saturday morning with the news that she had swallowed “a money” and that she would have to poop it out in a few days. It seems she downed a quarter last Friday night. Catherine panicked a little, but she looked up the problem on the internet. She learned that a lot of kids (including Liza’s daddy) do that and that Liza would just have to poop it out. Cat took her to the doctor today for a routine check-up, and the doctor said the same thing: she’ll have to poop it out. The doctor also said that if she doesn’t pass it in a few days, she’ll take an x-ray to make sure it isn’t lodged somewhere it shouldn’t be lodged. Upon hearing the story, a friend of ours asked if she would poop out a quarter or 25 pennies. I allowed as how we’ll know she’s in trouble if she only poops out 20 cents. I’ll keep you posted as events unfold. I’ll try my best to resist the urge to post a picture of the missing money when it reappears. I suggested that they only let Liza play with dollar bills henceforth.

hahahahaaa, I loved that she said, “Grandma, tell Grandma Jane what happened!” like she won an award or something.
geez, I certainly hope her body isn’t making change, however it would be a neat trick. A couple of years back I remember reading about a guy in Europe who had swallowed a lot of inedible objects including many many coins. He eventually died because his body could no longer digest and handle it all. Even though she is a child, I would think she would be able to handle this with ease. Funny story though.
We wait on baited breath to see if it has gotten “pooped” yet.
By the way, has the OIL SPILL had an effect on your daughter’s cafe? Hope not.
