Mary Poppins Was Right

A spoonful of sugar... or rather, a bowl full of ice cream helps the Augmentin go down. Claire has been fighting tooth and nail this latest antibiotic for her ear infection, but I resorted to mixing it with ice cream tonight, and that seemed to do the trick. So it's ice cream for the next 7 nights!

It would be quite nice if the world worked according to the rules of Mary Poppins, to be honest. I mean, she was firm, but fair, and while she let the kids go off to the fair alone while she and Bert shared a nice lunch with the penuins, she still made them clean their rooms and go to bed on time. There's something to be learned from this, I think, and it might even be bigger than jumping into a picture the "right" way. (apologies to those who are purists for the written story rather than the Disney version--we just watched it a few weeks ago so it's stuck in my head.)

It's been rough having Marc away, but only one more week before he's home. I have big plans for projects when he gets home. Huge.
