Years ago, my younger sister acquired the nick name of sticky fingers. She used to play with anything she ate, rolling it around, forming a ball of whatever before licking it over and over again. She had true sticky fingers.
My little girl L could give her a run for her money. No matter how many times I wash her hands and face in a day, she always and I mean ALWAYS ends up sticky and filthy again. Her face is always dirty looking, but I swear that I actually do bathe her and wash her face in between.
M never gets that dirty. I think the best part though, is that L hates sticky fingers. She will come to me over and over asking to be washed. All I can think is that it will be a wonderful thing when she can learn how to turn the faucet on herself.
