Bandaids

So Jackson fell on the sidewalk probably almost a week ago and scraped his knee.  It really never bled much but of course we washed it up and applied a bandaid.  Jackson dearly loves bandaids, he is pretty sure that you have to have a bandaid on constantly and it makes it not hurt.  So tonight after he had gone potty I took the bandaid off, it was getting pretty gross having survived a few baths in between the actual accident and now.  Holy cow!  He lost it!  Screaming and crying about how much his knee hurts now that the bandaid was off, he was also trying to convince me that it was bleeding everywhere (which of course it wasn't).  He really wanted a new bandaid applied and I refused him to do this insisting that if he did get his own bandaid he would go straight to bed with no story.  **Warning: the following image contains graphic matter not suitable for all viewers**

This is how I found him in the bathroom, screaming and crying about getting a new bandaid.  Don't worry, we ended up putting some medicine (triple antibiotic ointment) on it and all was good.  He did not however get another bandaid.
