I cannot believe it... The time has come for Jonah to start wearing pit paint aka deodorant. Last night after his basketball game we came home and were getting ready for showers. I walked by Jonah and thought I was going to vomit. I asked him if he smelled something and he said, "yea, that's me". My response... "Come here" as I raised his arm and sniffed. Gag, vomit, cough.
Why, why, WHY as a parent do I respond to situations like that? I am the mom that holds out my hand when a child says they are going to vomit. The other day I was taking Sophia to the bathroom, we were pulling her pants down, she started peeing before we could get on the potty and what does this mom do????? I HOLD OUT MY HANDS AND CATCH IT! As soon as it hit my hand I pulled away wondering what on earth I was thinking. Why is that my first response?
Back to my point... This morning before school Jonah put some pit paint on. He giggled because it tickled and told me his arm pits felt sticky and weird.
My biggest "baby" is growing up!
