This past week at school
Bes's class talked about firemen, policemen, doctors, etc. One day when I picked her up I immediately noticed her new accessory... a princess BAND-AID! I could not believe it! She has always loved the idea of a band-aid... for the longest time every time we would go to
Walmart she would beg for band aids... then ending up using them like stickers. We had a come to Jesus one day about how band aids and stamps were not stickers and that was that. The few times since that she would get a boo boo I would try to put a band aid on it and she would
FrEaK out! The only two times in her life where she has been truly terrified is the other day at Kroger when we happened upon a life size creepy old man Halloween creature that came to "life" when you walked by... red faced and shaking uncontrollably my sweet girl said to me, "don't worry mommy, I'll keep you safe" =)... and then of course, whenever we tried to put a band aid on her. So, needless to say, I was SHOCKED that she let them put one on. It lasted all day and into the next before it finally fell off... I have since discovered her band aid moment had to be the result of complete and total peer pressure because she has tried several times since to wear one and she just can't make it happen. Bless her. =)
