Today is the 10 year anniversary of what we call The Microbead Incident.I was one month postpartum with my third (and final) child. My then not-quite-3-year-old decided to take a pair of scissors to his older brother’s Mogu People pillow. It’s a fairly small pillow, about the size of your standard Build-A-Bear. How many microbeads could a pillow that size contain?You can see the answer above. Enough to cover the floor of his room so thick that it left footprints when he walked. Enough to spill out of the doorway, down the long hall, and down the stairs. Apparently when he first stabbed Blue Baby (the pillow’s name… it was a gift to my eldest from our Japanese friend) and realized it bled white snow, he took it by the leg and spun it over his head like a helicopter blade so that it snowed EVERYWHERE.10 years and I still find the occasional microbead wedged under the baseboards. -- source link
