A band aid yields great power in my little mommy world. A paper cut, a bruise, a bump…real or imagined….quickly gets covered with a bright pink band aid in our house. A band aid gives the victim the proper attention and soothing. It lowers the blood pressure of all involved. It turns down the volume of the screaming and eases the drama. It initiates the healing process. And, it’s decorative to boot.
It’s an elixir, really. Calming. Soothing. It makes nice- nice. The ultimate fix it.
Magic in a box. Pure and simple.
When was the last time you applied a band aid to your knee?
AHHHH. All better.
That, a glass of wine, and some Brie cheese and I just may be on to something, ya think?
