I have a toddler.

Actually, to date I’ve had 3.  Each one of my little bundles of joy have brought me much laughter.

My son is a compassionate and kind-hearted boy and when someone is hurt he tries his best to make it better. I clearly remember the time my toddler came to the rescue with band aids for our guest. It was a hot Texas Summer day and I was hosting a playdate with some girlfriends.  One of the little ones, got hurt so my son runs to my bathroom and comes out with “band aids” for everyone.  I went to check up on them  and to my horror I discovered sanitary napkins on all his friends who were supposedly hurt.

I wish I would have taken a picture of all the little ones covered in sanitary napkins because though I was horrified it was truly hilarious.
