Band Aid Please

Give me a band aid please! He said. He is three and loves them. Star Wars band aids, Darth Vader band aids, Roblox band aids, Power Ranger band aids, Barbie band aids, puppy band aids. He is wearing six of them on his legs already. I give him a box and he adds to his collection. Pleased to be entertained. Mommy does not let me do this! He informs me haughtily. Mommies can’t, grandma’s can, I reply.
