The puppets are gone...

Melody LOVES puppets. Unfortunately, she doesn't like to put them on her hands, she wants me to put them on my hands. You would think that would be such a sweet and simple request, but after days and days (and nights) of "puppy puppet on", "kitty puppet on" over and over again... you guessed it! The puppets "went away" during a nap time. It's not that I didn't want to play that game, but if I had to do anything else, she would yell and get upset that I took the puppet off, and start screaming "puppet on, puppet on, puppet on" getting louder and louder until the puppet went back on. It's very hard to get a child dressed with a puppet on one and many times both of your hands! The part I really feel bad about is that Melly keeps asking for them. I keep saying that they're gone, or go see if you can find them (in the shoe box on the top shelf of my closet), but I'm starting to feel a little bad about it. Maybe it's Mommy's guilt. Perhaps it's the week of rain we had and we were all cooped up. Let's see how I do this week if the puppets find their way back from playing hide and seek.
