Julia, on the other hand, decided to use a bunch of tissues in her My Little Pony game this afternoon:
They're all sisters, so each of her dozen or so ponies had to lay down with a blanket and go to sleep at the end of the game. BTW, I got to play this game along with Julia. I know you're jealous. I had to use a different voice for each of my three ponies, and I had to actually hold the pony who was speaking and move it around or Julia was not satisfied. Neither was she satisfied with my voice for one of the ponies, whose country twang must have sounded too much like one of the other ponies (who appears on Julia's favorite My Little Pony movie, but whose plastic toy equivalent we do not have.) The ponies weren't the only ones who were worn out by the time they laid down under tissues to go to sleep.
Finally, while this did not require a bunch of tissues, we definitely wound up using a fair number of paper towels and fresh wipes last night cleaning up our little chili-eating toddler. I had the foresight to take her pretty church dress off before sitting her down to dinner, but I didn't expect her to be shaking her head - and fork - around vigorously during dinner, with a few breaks to play "Where's Madeleine?" by hiding her eyes with both of her chili-covered hands...
