Are you kidding me?


Yes, Jonathan has done it again. If you missed the post in March about the crayon in his nose, get a load of this.
Today, after one of my appointments, I saw 3 missed calls and a frantic text from Dave. Jon was in the office with an ear ache. According to Dave Jon was in excruciating pain. So, I told him to give him tylenol and that seemed to give him some relief. Dave took him to my brother who stayed with him until I could get him to Dr. George (the pediatrician).
After I got Mr. Jon who was watching movies with Dan, we went to pick up Joshy who was having an asthma attack (when it rains it really pours).
We get to Dr. George (conveniently located across the street from Joshy's school). Jon makes sure the whole office knows he has a ear infection (self-diagnosis). Dr. George takes a look in the ear and in his thick Indian accent asks Jon "Young man did you put a Q-tip in your ear"? I knew Jon doesn't know what that is for this very reason. Then I was asked in my sternest mommy voice, "Jon, did you put something in your ear?"
The color left his face, because he was found out. Then began the confession of how he stuck the metal part of pencil without the eraser in his ear yesterday in class. His ear was all bloody inside and red with infection. I did everything in my power not to "kill" him. What was he thinking???
The funniest thing(now that I look back) was Joshy in the background in his pathetic wheezing voice saying "Ooo, Jon's in trouble.. he going to get a pow-pow."
Dr. George and nurse Gloria put the fear of God into Jon about putting random objects in his ears, nose and mouth.

LOL on Joshy's commentary in the background. So was the pencil still in his ear? If he removed it with the qtip I say sign him up for medical school! Thank the Lord for Dr. George! Oh, Vicky how do you do it???

Oh seriously...this is HILARIOUS! I'm sorry for you, but it's hard to not laugh in hindsight. I've had the same thing here w/ Soph getting a bead stuck up her nose and trying to hide it from me until she could get it out...Kirsten
