Top Chef

"Would you like to hear about a really yucky soup? If I made a soup out of sand and dirt and twigs and poisonous berries, wouldn't that be a really good yucky soup?"

Where did you go to medical school again?

I'm home sick today. Dr. Uma has been treating me. So far, she's checked my blood pressure, listened to my heart, looked inside my mouth, given me several shots in my forearm, trimmed some arm hair, poured medicine inside each ear, and rubbed some kind of "special medicine" on my arm. If she had eye of newt, I'm sure she'd find a use for that, too.

Uma was sick

Her throat hurt, and her voice was, um, raspy.

Odd things that children make you say

"You have to realize, Uma, that most of the time the thing that you're doing at any time is what you usually do at that time."

Uma's been saying a lot at lunch that "usually I'm taking my nap right now." I failed miserably at explaining why that's usually wrong.

Stuck under the sofa

Uma got stuck under the sofa while I was at work, and was happy to demonstrate again upon my return.

Child abuse

What happens when Uma won't stay in her seat properly.

The thing is, it doesn't bother her when I warn her that I'm getting out the belt. In fact, on numerous occasions, I've threatened not to get out the belt unless she sits nicely. She likes it, for some reason.

Unsafe sleeping

Uma has been sleeping without a bed rail for the last three nights and days. No accidents, knock on wood.
