Instincts are hard to kick

I was at Thing 1's class this morning. Drop off gets kinda crazy. You have to put things in baskets, and then make sure there are coats and backpacks hung up. Oh and there is reading the letters on the blackboard. Well we have some seriously awesome parents/kids in his class.

I was shuffleing through all the chaos and one of the mothers asked me if she had "pink" on her face. I looked up from trying to get the fish pointed towards the door and out of the pattern blocks. And then I saw the mother's face. Sure enough, she totally had a smudge of some type of pink substance on her jaw line. Before I could stop I had already produced the famous.

Thumb, Lick and..... milimeters from her soft supple skin I froze!!! Started to giggle switched hands and with a SPIT free hand removed said smudge. I couldn't stop laughing. She instantly recognized the universal cleanser trick and laughed too. I am so glad she thought it was funny, considering I almost vicariously Licked her.

I realized I had become one of "those Moms" I have no control when it comes to messy faces. I instantly bought tons of hand sanitizer. If I am going to lick my hands and can't control when or where the instinct kicks in I better have 99.9% germ free hands. :) At least it has a light citrus scent.
