As it turns out, Margaret is probably a bit less delicate than I feared. After her, "incident," she awoke from her nap seemingly without ill effect, and with both eyes able to focus and track the same object. In fact, she seemed quite happy in the afternoon.
It remains to be seen whether her future academic performance has been permanently degraded, however.
The rest of the day yesterday was relatively uneventful - even more so since the Internet connection went down (the repair technician came at 1:20 pm on SUNDAY - gotta' LOVE Hong Kong efficiency).
We spent date night at home since SAM wasn't feeling up to a date night out. The sum total of our evening activity consisted of eating a Daisy prepared dinner in, listening to podcasts of "This American Life," and taking care of Margaret before retiring to bed.
Yes, we live a life of extravagant decadence.
Then, this morning, while playing with Margaret and a few stuffed toys, I realized why Tibetan Buddhists believe that the types of objects that young children grab for are an indication of their past lives and future destinies.
I think she's going to like the food in Maine over the summers. I can't wait!

So funny! My laughter pulled a study-crazed Brad out of his studying to check out the blog. Those pictures are priceless! You both are truly Mainers at heart!
