I love kiddos. I really do. I love their innocents. This was a conversation I had last night at Basketball with a 5 year old.
Said 5 year old takes a digger on the gym floor and instantly becomes dramatic about the situation.
Me: "Hey, good digger! Are you okay buddy?"
5 Year Old: "I don't know... I already scrapped my knee once this week."
Me: "Oh man, it looks like you got it in the same spot again!"
5 Year Old: "Ya, it pretty much hurts."
Me: "Do you think you can stand up and walk on it?"
5 Year Old: *Slowly climbing to his feet* "I think so, but I'm pretty sure I'm going to need a band-aid ... just in case it starts to bleed."
And even though I knew that it by no means was his knee going to start bleeding - we went and got a band-aid and said 5 year old was as good as new! As an adult I sometimes wish situations were that easy... that we could simply apply a band-aid and everything would be as good as new! :)

So true! If a box of bandaids could fix everything that would be spectacular! :)
Band-aids...they are so magical. :)
