“Mom, my processor fell in the toilet.”
That would be the $6,ooo one, the same one that enables him to hear, the very one that doesn’t have a warranty, yeah, that one.
I threw back my head and did my best impression of “The Scream” then hustled around to get his little briefcase of stuff that goes with it and did the things I knew to do. We are waiting for it to dry. He has fallen into a pool before and it survived. Another child fell in a lake and his made it.
I am going to pray. I already apologized for freaking everyone out.
Once years ago, I was on the phone with my brother in California. He heard ice clinking in my glass and asked what I was drinking, “By the grace of God, it’s water.”

Any word on the processor unit yet? My son dropped a walkie-talkie in a puddle this summer, and we dried it with a hair dryer. Good as new. But this is just a little more important.
By the way, you’ve told us the clinking ice story here before, I think. You sure it’s just water in there?

It’s working, if a little shakily.
I found myself asking yesterday, “Why don’t I drink?” as I removed 3 quarters from the Beans mouth AFTER the toilet incident.

Water? Is that what kids these days are calling it? What ‘proof’ is that water… haha!
