This qualifies as a tale from the asylum...
Most of us common folk don't have stellar diets. They either are lacking in something(s) or have other things in abundance. Come to think of it, I don't even know if I could define a "stellar" diet, but that's besides the point.
As old-er folk type people, we know when we've been bad. As for the younger folk... kids... they don't care. They just eat what tastes good... ahhh remember when we used to do that?
What's lacking is the realization as they sit in consternation and contemplation never making the correlation that the lack of fiber might be the cause of their constipation.
So was it to be for Ana.
Poor Ana... not having much success in the poop department. Pooping pellets and grapes and not liking how hard she had to work to pop them out, it was mom to the rescue.
Some time ago, we found fiber bars that most of the kids like... Ana (luckily) is one of them. We also have applesauce plus fiber. In an attempt to get things moving more smoothly again Julie "fibered" her up... added water and let stew/brew and hoped for a movement of Bach proportions.
Oh... we got movement alright... right up the bach... filled up the crack and out the top of her pants and all over her booster seat. I suspect it might have been like something out of the Brady Bunch... the volcano episode, well at least the oozing part.
Ewww...
On a cleaner note... Nick got his braces today and is on his way to making his already great smile greater.
At times unwanted, but often are we uncomfortably thrust into living with it. To borrow part of a line from the movie Heartbreak Ridge, "You adapt, you overcome"...
In memory of Emmah ~ KEIYH
A small request... please
I have a small request and it won't take up much of your time.
Now that Emmah's spirit has left her physical body behind and has completed it's journey "home" I would very much like if you could all take a moment and reflect on Emmah... whether you knew her personally or not. Let us know how she touched/affected or made a difference in your life.
I especially would like to hear from those of you who know/knew her, what your fondest memory or memories of her are. Funny stories and what you remember her likes and dislikes to be (no matter what they are) and what word/words you would use to describe her.
In order to keep all of those thoughts in one place, please, please use this link only for this purpose only.
Thank-you
