Soooo not funny!

So Michael and I were watching TV last night after the kids went to bed. Darren passed out right away but apparently Jaycee wasn't quite ready. So in the middle of Two and a half Men we hear a noise from down the hall where the kids rooms are. Michael presses pause and says that he will check it out. Within a minute Michael comes back into the living room and says you gotta come here. What could Jaycee possibly be doing? Well, she decided to go in the bathroom first, take out a small wooden box that I keep all her little rubber pony tails and clips in, bring them into her room, proceed to dump the entire thing onto her bed and play with them. Seriously, these mini rubber bands are just that, tiny little rubber bands that you can barely wrap even the thinnest hair twice in. So Michael and I start to clean up the mess, putting everything back into the box. We had Jaycee stand up to make sure that we got everything and when she did, I noticed that she had wrapped one of those tony rubber bands around her ankle. I could barely get the thing off it was so tight on her!!! But I did. I couldn't believe it! So I checked her other foot and her hands and thank god I did!!!! She had 3 of them wrapped so tight around her wrist that Michael had a hard time getting them off before I started to panic. Again, soooo not funny! All I could think about was what would have happened if we wouldn't have checked? I mean, really? Maybe an overreaction but she could have lost a foot or hand if she wasn't able to take them off herself! Needless to say all of those mini rubber bands are put away where she can not get to them anymore. Whewwwwww!
