My 18 month old son grabbed a half full glass of wine and got a few drops before being policed by mom. That was funny after the fact. Most of it was soaked up by our very light colored carpet. We always have the bottle of Resolve near by.
That was nothing compared to 2 nites ago when my son was at a business and found a candle within arms reach. He tried to drink the lit candle. It was full of hot, melted wax. (Those of you who are thinking bad parent need to understand the speed and curiosity of an 18 month old.) No one seemed to know a candle was lit and in the easy picking of a small boy until the screaming started.
Yes, there was wax in the mouth
Yes, there was a lengthy visit to the emergency room
Yes, he is fine and somehow escaped any and all burns
Yes, we are actually good parents
