"I have a crack in my eye"

Sunday morning, November 21st, after breakfast, Mary-Gail climbs into bed with Lovey and says in her very cute and very pitiful voice: "I have a crack in my eye."

Good heavens, No! Not a crack in your eye! Go get the medical equipment. And off Mary-Gail went to get her pretend doctor kit so Lovey could take a look.

They sat on the bed, Mary-Gail used the dentist mirror as a thermometer to take her temperature, while Lovey used the pink stethoscope to listen to her heart and lungs. Only he was pretending to be "Scuttle" from The Little Mermaid and didn't know where Mary-Gail's heart was. "Is your heart in your eye?" Mary-Gail thought that was funny.

After several minutes, and a thorough exam including looking at her eyes, ears, and mouth, it was determined that the only way to cure Mary-Gail's crack-in-her-eye, was to give her a shot. Mary-Gail got a series of shots - in her foot, her lip, and sadly, a shot in her eye. She was cured.

Rebecca came up and said "I have a crack in my bum."
Yes, dear, you do. And ever since that Sunday morning, both Rebecca & Mary-Gail have "cracks" everywhere and need to be doctor'ed up.
Mary-Gail is being brave and is taking her own temperature;
Lovey is trying to determine if Mary-Gail has a heart beat
"Is your heart in your eye?"
