The baby Powder Incident

I was returning emails and smelled the faint odor of baby powder in the air. I called D.
S: please tell me you didn’t leave the bottle of baby powder where they could reach it.
D: ahhhh.
Door opens, two ghosts come out. I grabbed the camera. The bottle in the fifth image is empty, the particles were just in the air. Then it hits me…that can’t be good.

It’s all fun and games until Poison Control gets called. After 10 minutes of “what’s your name, you number, you waist size” I finally got my answer: watch eyes and breathing for an hour. Now that I am on “America’s Worst Parents” list…

Over and out.

    Oh no…that’s terrible. Funny..but terrible! I like how you grab the camera and THEN call poison control! ha ha! I probably wouldn’t have even thought to call them in the first place.

    Yeah, my first thoughts were “OMG, I remember doing this to my mom (with flour), she’s gonna want to see this” she was one of those “one day you’ll have kids just like you” type of people. I wanted to prove to her she was right. THEN I remember hearing that talc was linked to asthma, so being paranoid mommy I freaked.
