The Time My Pseudo Child Ate A Dime

Nathan is what I consider my Pseudo child :) 

I was there when he was born he was my 

hmmm I think 3rd live birth that I attended. 

I babysat him weekly from 4 weeks old till 3ish

Him and Scott are best buds! 

 I have watched this beautiful little boy grow and grow

He is one of the smartest kids you will ever meet!

He is 4 1/2 now :( 

I could go on and on about how smart he is 

about how he can add and subtract 

spell and read.. 

Not only is he super smart he is kind and polite. 

When he meets someone new he will shake their hand 

and say "hello my name is Nathan" 

When he is leaving he will shake their hand again and say 

"It was nice meeting you" 

He got bit by a dog a few months back, 

(I will spare you the pictures because they are not pretty)

it was awful and scary but he was brave 

and strong. When the police came to get a statement 

Nathan gave them the whole story, including his address 

city state zip and phone number. 

To say the cops were impressed was an understatement!

Which brings me to my title..

The Time My Pseudo Child Ate A Dime! 

Scott and I were over visiting last week 

It was a little past nap time and we were 

getting ready to leave when Scott found a dime 

on the floor and handed it to Nathan telling him to 

put it in his piggy bank in his room. 

Scott and I leave and about 30 seconds later 

Lucy calls me and in her calmest voice ever 

says...I have to take Nathan to Children's...

He just ate that dime Scott gave him! 

I couldn't believe what I was hearing! 

Nathan? No way! that's all I could say!

over and over again. 

I blame this mindless dime eating on lack of sleep, 

I mean, we were cutting into his nap time.. 

maybe he was craving metal?

I have no clue but thank the lord 

he is perfectly fine the Xrays showed 

the Dime and they are now just waiting 

for it to pass...ya ew. 

I love my Pseudo Child to death! 

But no more coins for him!
