Tessie loves slime, making it, playing with it, trading it with friends . . . UGH!
Lucky for her, Daddy loves her and her hobbies. He decided it would be a great idea to take her and her two cousins to a slime convention. Yes, a slime convention. Six hours of walking around and playing and smelling slime on a Saturday! I was excited to have a Saturday off . . .
And then Tessi came to me and begged me to come with to the slime convention. “Please! You don’t ever do any of the fun stuff I want to do.”
She is absolutely right because the fun stuff she wants to do involves slime, glitter, confetti, paint, markers. Anything that makes a mess is fun for her. Anything that makes a mess, gives me heart palpitations. So I went . . .
She was in heaven and I will never go again! One and Done!
Craziness of Being a Kouts 
Good for you for doing something out of your comfort zone! While allllll those things make me anxious as well, I have a feeling they are in this mama of a toddler’s near future.

Slime is so messy and sticky! I definitely agree with you on that it is an awful creation. Good job for supporting your daughter, and now you shouldn’t have to do it again 🙂
