Why, hello again, toddler stomach bug!
I’d forgotten this particular dance.
Gone through seven sets of clothing so far.
Hoping the first batch of pajamas get out of the dryer in time for the next round….
I’m sure some spent Valentine’s night being romanced, or remembering romance, or wishing for romance.
I spent a good portion of mine dancing to the B-52s with Lightning Bug and a little wooden duck with flappy feet.
Alert the scientific community:
I have evidence that age 23 months is when farts go from bodily function to FUNNY bodily function.
Two things I re-learned in rapid succession tonight as Lightning Bug sat on my lap:
1) Some jokes strike toddlers as MUCH funnier than others.
2) Some diapers are MUCH less absorbent than others.
