Looking back

In addition to my “ruminating-about-parenting-issues blog(s)” of the past, I tried to do an arty one. Time crunch got the best of me and it didn’t really take off. But there were a small handful of gem posts worth re-running, and here’s one.

Any parent will tell you that life with a toddler involves the adept handling, dispensing, cleaning and otherwise dealing with a variety of fluids. There are sippy cups, and in the case of extended breastfeeders like me, there is nursing and the call for milk; there are scientific experiments in the form of purposeful spills, there are accidental spills from wildly flailing arms and wrists just learning to be under control; and of course, there is pee pee and potty talk.

So, these latest images celebrate a couple common toddler-related liquid themes, using more, uhm, sanitary household liquids to approximate.

Can you guess what the stand-in substances are?
