Grant's hands have been a bit dry this winter season, and it made Cory think of a gift we received long...ago as a wedding present. Our at-home paraffin wax kit. Who doesn't have one of these at home?
We dug it out of the hall closest, plugged it in, waited the whole day for the wax to melt (Grant could hardly stand it, and kept coming into the kitchen to check on the progress and dip random finger tips into the wax as it was melting), and then treated Grant and Johanna (and ourselves) to a fancy spa paraffin wax treatment. Grant was very eager to give it a try, and enjoyed dipping his hands into the hot wax.
Johanna was not quite as sure about it, but was willing to give it a try.
The hardest part for both of them was to sit for 10 minutes with those gloves on. Chill out and not play for 10 minutes!! Who ever heard of such a thing??
As you can see there are no photos of Julia sporting the paraffin mits. She had absolutely no interest in dipping her hands in hot wax, and Cory and I figured the chance of her chilling out with those mits on for 10 minutes would have been practically impossible.
