Silly Bands

...why didn't I invent these???

You know your child is getting older when suddenly she is aware of trends.  This summer we have discovered the Silly Band. My fellow children of the 80s, remember jelly shoes and jelly bracelets like the ones Ricky Schroeder wore?  They are back in new and exciting shapes, available for trade, collection, and all around fashion.  The more, the merrier.




And yet, even in growing up innocence lives on.  When does the day come when a caterpillar crawling on your hand no longer means "he likes me!  he really likes me, mama!"? 





and yesterday afternoon...
