Last week I mentioned our run-in with a shark on the last day of summer vacation.
This morning my 4 year old was scribbling away at her craft table. Minutes later she passed a sheet of paper to me. Looks like the last day of summer vaca 2006 won't be one she soon forgets.
I think she did an outstanding job of catching us at the nanosecond before I shrieked and ran with her and her brother to safety on the sand.
I know 4 year olds should be allowed some creative license, but I just need to say this- I don't swim in a skirt and her brother doesn't swim in whitey tighties. It's bad enough I take them swimming in a giant pool of potential death, but I don't swim in office attire.
I'd also like to thank her for noticing that I am indeed trying to grow out my bangs. I'd like to think it made me too ugly to eat.
what a scary encounter! but look at the absolutely fantastic picture your 4 year old got out of it!

I noticed that your right foot/ankle seems to be swollen. Did you twist it running from the shark?!

Holy. Shit. I think I just peed a little, seriously. That's some of the best art ever!
