In the end Everett was helping daddy cook pasta today and being very eager to help stir the linguine he got splashed with boiling water on his arm. Fortunately, he was wearing a long sleeve shirt, and it was a small area, but it did blister and hurt quite a bit. Everett just wanted to lay on the couch with the cold green towel over his burn.
We got out a Paw Patrol Band Aid which was the only thing that got him moving off the couch willing to get rid of the towel. Even better, Skye, which is his new favorite pup, was featured prominently on the Band Aid.
Here’s Everett’s account of the ordeal:
At the end of the day, Everett didn’t eat dinner (it’s hard enough getting him to eat at the best of times nowadays), and daddy and Everett went out to McDonald’s for an ice cream.
Here’s Sierra tonight with her books, ready to read. Kind of.
