Ouch!

This morning we drove out to visit my nieces out in the Eastern Fraser Valley. They've been housesittning on a beautiful 5 acre property for the last three weeks. The mountain air was refreshing. Because the entire property was fenced we sent the kids off to explore. Halfway through their adventure Diane lost her footing and reached out to steady herself. The nearest thing to grab onto was the electrified fence. Thankfully her older cousin was there to help her out. A few minutes later she came wondering out of the trees. She was melancholy for the next while and it took her some time to finally tell me what happened. She was really frightened and couldn't understand what had happened to her. She was out of sorts for the rest of the afternoon, but I'm sure she'll be back to her usual self tomorrow.

  1. Has she fully recovered? I didn't realize this happened out at Chad & Rhonas... poor Diane!

    Did you have a good time with my kids? They're pretty great, eh? I miss them so much and can hardly wait for SUNDAY!!

    Love you lots and I hope we can visit again soon.

  2. You realize that I have several quips sure to make you laugh but they hedge on the sarcastic and unkind which I know you delight in as well but concerning your child not at all appropriate. So I will avoid the country shock therapy jokes and hair comments that my family would delight in for the next few weeks. However if you notice any positive behavioral changes and better hair can you give me the address.
    Poor sweetie.
