Dear mother whose child came running at my baby with outstretched hand in the playroom at Mother's Day Out yesterday,
Please don't be offended that I gently had to ask your (roughly) 4 year old son to refrain from putting his hands all over my unsuspecting baby's face (twice, mind you, but who's counting?). It's nothing personal. It's just that, well, I don't know where he's been with those hands. And more than just the germ thing, he was really flailing that arm in a manner typically only reserved for patting down burly criminals. I'm surprised you didn't see that and stop him yourself.
And truly, it kinda IS the germ thing too. My baby is too young to be immunized against all kinds of serious illnesses, so I can't take any chances. I swear I'm not one of "those" moms or anything; I'm just trying to do what's best for my kids.
Thanks for understanding.
