Stuck

You know it's going to be a good day when your child's teacher tells you that she needs to tell you something, but don't worry, everything is ok now...

The weather was nice yesterday so Sophie's class got to play outside in their playground. Sophie and a friend were sticking their legs through some bars on one of the play sets, laughing and having a good time. The friend got up to do something else and that was when Sophie noticed that she was stuck and couldn't get one of her legs out. Sophie informed her teachers and they calmly tried to pull her leg out. They quickly realized that Sophie was really stuck and they needed some help. After a lot of shouting someone came out with some lotion and they coated Sophie's leg with it. This did the trick and the teachers were able to free Sophie.

The funny part of the story was that while the teacher was clearly still upset by the experience, Sophie clearly was not. Apparently she never cried and calmly talked and laughed with the teachers the whole time. She came out of the experience without a mark on her and couldn't even remember which leg it happened to. Which brings me to the other funny part, which is: this is Sophie. I'm not saying that I expected her to get her leg stuck at school but I certainly wasn't surprised. Some times shenanigans just happen.
