Zoe is Poisened

Part of my catch up blogging--about a month ago, Reed got this email when he was out of town.
Dear Dad
Collin poisoned Zoe by telling her to drink some toxic lotion
Easton

I had been working on the phone--I think negotiating one of the offers on the house (different post) so they wrote it to Reed. Zoe was fine. Collin did somehow talk her into licking some of her body lotion. Easton read on the container to not eat it and was panicked. I assured him she didn't eat enough to be hurt, got Collin in trouble for tricking Zoe and had my first talk with Zoe about not to do everything her brothers do or say. It's hard cause Avery and Easton totally watch out for her. But Collin has no special consideration for the fact that he she is a girl or the baby of the family. They bicker and fight all the time--and it's usually a draw. It's sort of funny--but only at times like now when they are peacefully sleeping and I'm just remembering it.

So, I didn't know they sent this to Reed, because as soon as I was free they came running to me to tell me this. Mind you, they inturrupt me ALL the time on the phone, and I always say "Does someone need to go to the hospital" --usually it's no. So the one time they really thought someone was sick, the didn't inturrupt, sent an email to Reed since he clearly can do so much from some random airport terminal! But he did get a good laugh out of it too, and forwarded it on to me.
