Pen Disaster Update

For all of you concerned parents out there, poison control assured me that Amelia would be fine and that her life would not be ruined by this little incident. ;-)

And, ever more spectacularly, the pen came out of the towels! (They were new cream colored towels. It had to be the new towels and not our 10 year old ones, didn't it?) Hallelujah for borax and washing soda.

I have to admit as well, as soon as I saw Amelia I nearly burst out laughing. (Not at her, because of her). Sometimes it is SO hard not to laugh when kids do something like this. I didn't want to encourage her, after all. We do have lots of sparkle pens in the house!
