Baby Tylenol, baby ibuprofen, prescription stuff--any of it. They are both on daily long-term low-dose prophylactic antibiotics because of congenital urinary reflux (PINK MEDICINE) and they both just suck it down like candy. Not that I give the baby candy. Or the toddler, either, for that matter. But I too have had visions of future chemical dependency. (Not really, and nothing to joke about, but....they really do love that medicine.)

I am frequently heard, "Dont touch me with your dirty hands.", which is then met with big sad puppy eyes and a, "I just wanted to get you a hug, Mommy." Yeah, well do it after you clean your hands. Mom has a reputation to uphold. I am just happy that I am not the only mother who doesnt want her kids to get her all messy.

Yesterday my son scraped his knee and bled on the JJill pale pink wrap cardigan that I HAD JUST UNWRAPPED FROM THE BOX. I, too, muttered something terribly motherly and sympathetic under my breath ("Dammit, Jack! This was BRAND NEW!").<br/><br/>Great sale on at JJill right now by the way. <br/><br/>Luckily.
