Dec. 18th, 2008 11:41 amWhen your 20-month-old son informs you that his monkey needs band-aids on his arms, you might think, Oh, sure, where's the harm?
The harm would be to your fingers and your carpal tunnel-y wrists, when you find yourself trying to peel stretchy plastic Spider-Man band-aids off the beanie monkey's furry arms. Any other mother would have just let George have Spider-Man tattoos for a while, but other mothers are not obsessives like I am.
He's been trying to get me to put more band-aids on Roger, George's dinosaur buddy, but I declined. Roger is fuzzy, too. I did not know there were fuzzy dinosaurs, but you learn many things as a parent.
