A few days ago, N and I were eating a snack after preschool/work. She ate a blueberry muffin. She had blueberry on her face. I desperately wanted to get the blueberry off of her face. We were out so I couldn't easily wash it. I didn't have wiipes in my purse.
I was restraining every Mommy instinct of licking my finger and wiping her face.... You know, the thing that EVERYONE remembers their Mom doing to them and HATING IT?
Instead, I thought about the problem. I showed N what her face looked like in my compact mirror. N doesn't like having stuff on her face. She licked her own finger and wiped her face. Problem solved!
