Jell-O Pudding Pops

Can you say "ew?"

I know she's a toddler. And I know toddlers are supposed to be messy. But I have issues.

I hover when she eats. I wipe up as she spills. I clean up and toss as she drops. Sticky, slimy, greasy, messy. I just can't do it.

Once in a while, I accept that I am a bit absurd - that I need to just get over it. Let her be a messy kid. It's rare. Very rare. And usually outside.

I'm with you. Sometimes I worry -- and this is not an unfounded fear -- that if I died, nobody would comb my kids' hair or wash their faces, and then their hair would hang in their faces and just stick to the stickiness...ugh.

Give that girl a bath!!

Did her shirt come clean??

They still make Jell-O pudding pops?!
