Strange enough, since I promised you a band-aided portrait, not even one chance presented... But you know one's children are known for never do what one expects from them (and times a good thing that is), so no band-aid photo occasions during the last 2-3 months. Not that band-aid use ever decreased at our home, our credit card records suggest we better invest in Johnson&Johnson stock anytime soon. I hope the little BCG vs Valentina series fills the gap. A happy birthday to Soleil!
