I think I traumatized Miss Moo last week!
Picture it...me with my surgically repaired and now former carpol tunnel arms and my crew in the kitchen, glistening tile floor, shiney stainless steel feeding dishes (you see where I'm going with this, don't you?) me dishing each one their delicious raw dinner and they dig in.
So, I start to put the clean dishes up while they eat and...yep, you guessed it...I dropped their big stainless steel water dish on the tile floor...right next to Miss Moo's head and the gong noise was horrific!

As she swallowed her last gulp of food she made a beeline for the safety of my husband's lap in the living room and I swear I heard her telling 'Daddy' that I had just tried to kill her
I tried to explain that it was an accident and that, even though Mommies arms have been fixed, she still drops things sometimes.
Well, I don't think she believed me...so...now everytime I get their dishes out and start to move one above her in her direction she takes off and stops a few feet away from me...only to come over once the dish is safely resting on the floor.
However, I have found that if I lower her bowl and set it in front of her she is o.k. now so I'm hoping she will get over this and I have also decided that the tile is coming out when we do the kitchen next month. Maddie Jo doesn't like it because it's cold so I keep her blanket in there for her to sit on since she's my kitchen helper and I think we all now know how Miss Moo feels about it.
So...I'll be picking out some soft and pretty congoleum next week
