Tonight after his bath The Boy discovered, for the very first time, that he had pruned hands. I was drying him off and he was riveted. I didn't know what was up at first, but then I got it. His little face was full of concentration as he examined his fingers, and then he turned to me and said, "clean it up."
I explained to him that he wasn't actually dirty and that his fingers would soon be back to normal. He then grabbed his bedtime books, curled up beside me in bed and forgot all about it.
