List of disgustingly gross parasitic and/or viral ailments from which one or more of my beautiful children has suffered:
Warts? Check.
Molluscum? Check.
Toenail fungus? Check.
Athlete's foot? Check.
Pinworms? Check.
Lice? Check.
Frankly, I thought the pinworms were the worst thing in the world. But hand on heart, I'd rather deal with the ick-factor of pinworms every month for the rest of my life than deal with the combo ick- and endlessly-pick factors of lice one more time.
It's nearly done me in, but I am winning. Some little parasites think that they are going to compromise my daughters' heads? Think again, little suckers (no pun intended).
