What Doesn’t Kill Us Makes Us Stronger

This moment would’ve never happened with our firstborn.  While i still don’t encourage Tobin to lick public property (especially not the subway poles!), i am a lot more relaxed about his exposure to germs and dirt in general than i was with Mika.  Playdates can happen with moderately snotty friends, and pants just look like a soap commercial challenge by the end of the day.  Here he’s having fun with another second born, lil’ Suko (Diego’s kid sister).
