Sticky Situation

Do you see it?GUM!
"Beware the Ides of March."
I actually said it out loud in bed this morning.
Soon after, Ava's gum fell out of her mouth when I was tickling her and POOF - vanished! Of course it turned up in a tangle in her hair about 15 minutes later.
So, gum in a little girl's hair being a milestone, I got out the camera. Ava was very remorseful, but I assured her it was no big deal. Then she reminded me about the time I cut the gum out of her hair. I had forgotten about the real first time she got gum in her hair. No wonder she thought I was going to freak out! That time we were headed into a store and we went straight to the school supply aisle, I opened a package of kid scissors and snipped it out. Bah! We were both cranky about that.
Hopefully this morning's incident is the sum total of our troubles on the Ides of March '09.
