It can be difficult to entertain a 2-year-old in an emergency room for hours on end. After exhausting all the games I could think of to entertain a little boy hooked up to fluids and many monitors -- the opposite game, this little piggie, I spy with my little eye, etcetera etcetera -- Wilder spied the tiny TV up on the wall.
I turned it on and changed channels, Wilder repeating "no ... no ... no ..." until he saw something that caught his eye.
So what did we watch for an hour while waiting for our ambulance escort to hospital No. 2?
Octopussy. The best part? It was dubbed in Spanish. When you're 2, watching Octopussy goes a little something like this.
"Choo choo! Choo choo mama! ... Car! Ooooooh, helicopter! Mama, they crashed!!! Look Mama! Clown. Clown. Clown. Clown. Mama, mama, mama ... CLOWN!!!!"
