Chapstick: A Tutorial

1. Apply liberally to luscious lips. Be sure to stick the lips out to cover the maximum surface area.
2. Repeat, ya know, for softness and stuff. Lick in between applications.
2. Next, rub a bit into the nostril cavity, just for good measure
3. And the inner lips, too, for taste.
5. Completely ignore your mom's request to refrain from digging into the chap stick and gouge that sucker as far as your finger can go and get a good, healthy chunk. Lick finger, sucking off every last morsel of minty goodness.
4. Return the cap, or at least pretend to by sticking it onto the wrong end until mom's not looking and you can take another nibble
6. Smile on command when mom says so. Even if you have to fake it.
7. When that doesn't work, try and charm her by imitating dad's half-crooked smile
8. Work the camera as necessary, showing off those newly soft, pillow-y lips.

Now, this is a tutorial I can really use! Love that Little Stinker shirt, and how appropriate for this particular modeling. I can't get over how much he seems to have grown. No wonder you're overwhelmed by his maturing. He's beginning to look like a big brother, indeed.

so cute! Children and chapstick are meant for each other. Lily and Jude should get together and share tips. Lily carries a dozen around in her purse at all times and believes in very liberal application :)
