library mom: systematically cataloging all aspects of raising two babies at the same time

------------------------------------

I used to covertly taste those smelly markers, now that I think of it.

Note: Crayola crayons are likely not delicious, but edible. Every mom in the history of creation probably knows this except me.

Ana ate the top off the orange crayon the other day and came running over to me spitting little chunklets of waxy Crayola goodness.

The lady at Poison Control (800.222.1222) was very calm and didn't make me feel bad about the fact that the words "non-toxic" appear in various places on the box of crayons itself.

"You don't have to worry. It will come out looking pretty much like it did going in." This statement calmed me immediately.

And that is my quote for today. Crayons= comfort food.
