Lessons for Parents

Here's a story I'd forgotten to share (hmmm, should I really be sharing this story??) about our first night in Minden. The girls share a room that is rather small, so we put bunk beds in there instead of their normal queen bed. One of the reasons Kamrie really wanted this room is because it has a cool "Huskers" ceiling fan in it.

Anyway, we learned (& Kamrie learned) a lesson about ceiling fans & bunk beds the hard way...She stood up on the bed & WHACK!!!! Tears, many, many tears becuase she got hit right by the eye with the fan. So, we went through the whole conversation about not standing up on the bed because of the fan.

So, we get everyone laid down again & sure enough, WHACK!!!! Tears, many, many, MANY tears & Kamrie said, "I forgot!" She was looking pretty rough the first couple of days.

We were able to move the beds to the other wall & have avoided any more ceiling fan injuries thus far.
