Roll, Stop and Drop!

Happy New Year!!  I hope you all enjoyed your holiday festivities, now back to some kind of normal life!  Life here is as normal as it gets…..for us.    Something funny happened today, which Mike and I both said we need to be sure and write about it – - -

I turned on the oven to preheat it for our fabulous Sunday night pizza.  Unfortunately, I completely forgot that I made caramel rolls in the oven on Christmas Day, and the caramel oozed all over in the bottom of the oven.  Needless to say, it probably got somewhere close to the 400 mark, and there were flames in the bottom of the oven.   As I stood in awe with Jillian in my arms, Mike reminded me that we should probably do something about it rather than just stare at it.  Blow it Out.  Success!  Blow it Out.  Success Again!  Douse it with water….make the cat run screaming across the kitchen….make the boys probably pee a little…..Mom and Jillian standing by…..All Success!  So we thought it was a good time to talk about fire safety.  Boys, if you ever hear the smoke detector (which is now blaring) and mom and dad aren’t home, what do you do?  Isaiah:  Call the Fire Department!  Call 911.  Do we have to get out of the house now?

Us:  No , we don’t have to get out now….but if there was a real fire, it would be a great idea to get out and call the fire department. 

Harrison:  Call 1-1-9!  Roll Stop and Drop!!

All of us….even Isaiah:  Laughing.

Harry gets an A+ for effort!!
