Oh, nasty! How is the ankle now? I remember taking a tumble down some basement stairs because my 21/2-year-old left Duplo (a larger version of Lego) on the stairs. Of, course I didn't see it, but I felt it for sure before I landed. I did break my foot, just below the ankle. I was a long time healing because they couldn't put a cast on it. Kids and their toys!

I wish I had bee smarter with the crafts when my kids were little. This is such a cool idea to use up excess toys. I think all kids collect these tiny toys just to irritate parents, especially mommies who do the cleanup. I remember helping a friend move and one of the jobs I did was to get a large hamper and look through the house for small toys, like the kind that comes in Happy Meals. Well, when I finished collecting the hamper was overflowing! And she had just two kids. I had four and we almost never ate at Micky D's so not so many for me!
