Gavin has been sick lately…two colds in a row!  It’s gotten so bad that his upperlip and mouth are cracking, red, raw and obviously hurting.  If he let me put chapstick on him, it wouldn’t get so bad, but he absolutely refuses and wipes it off if I do.  Finally, the last few days I figured out how to get past this.  The only way I can put chapstick on Gavin is by kissing him!  So, I load up with chapstick and then kiss it onto him and he is fine with this and doesn’t wipe it off.  I’m amused and very relieved that I can help his poor skin now.
