Mother and daughter grocery shopping at Cub on a Friday afternoon. Daughter has been well behaved for the entire time, but is starting to get a bit antsy and asking if we were done. "Just one more aisle, we need some frozen veggies." As I'm looking for the green beans I like, I hear a pretty horrid sounding scream for a young child and thought, "Whoa, something is going on a few aisles away." Fast forward TWO SECONDS when mother realized it's actually her child, sounding muffled, because she's stuck inside of a freezer door. Literally, stuck inside. Yes, apparently daughter's curiosity got the best of her and from there, the law of physics took over. Her tongue was frozen on one of the shelves. By the time I dropped my veggie bags on the floor, ran to her (maybe 10 feet away?), and immediately began to laugh, she decided to just tear it off. She didn't cry long, but couldn't get over that her mouth was now bleeding. It kept her nice and distracted while I paid and bagged everything up! I was optimistic that some of the sass would have come off her tongue with that chunk of skin.
No. Such. Luck. Same sassy little girl we're used to.
Old picture, but works well with the story....
On a much more positive note, we had conferences with her Pre-K teacher this morning. After a bit of a rough start (socially), Kylie is doing wonderfully in all aspects and "will be very ready to enter kindergarten." And let's not forget, "She's very independent." Yeah, you don't say.
