Day #6

Things that I say to my kids that I need to be listening to myself #6:
Wash your hands!

Now before you start questioning my hygiene, let me just say that YES, I wash my hands regularly.  But with school starting up again and the first signs of cooler weather (yay, snot season!), it is never a bad idea to just wash them more often.  Have you seen the hands of a 2 year old? The word grubby comes to mind...as it should, since the world of the 2 year old often involves some sort of combination of dirt, being on the ground, handling bugs, or sticks, drool and/or snot and a snack.  And even though I do not spend my hours sitting on the floor of my kitchen like my baby does, I do spend hours carrying that baby and snuggling that 2 year old and holding the hand of that 4 year old who just picked his nose.  And so it just couldn't hurt to do the #1 thing to prevent the spread of disease a little more often.
