Just a question to see if my BP is exceptionally neat. That's what I like to think!! So this is the deal. I never allow my son, my BP's 5 1/2 year old "daddy", to hold Linda, our BP, while he is blue... never . But when his eyes clear up I give Linda a day or two and then we handle/love him . It is the coolest thing. No he isn't scared or anything but instead loves to crawl and bump his nose on our skin to start his shed . After he gets it started and it is off his head I very loosly wrap my fingers, like a ring, around his shed. Then he just "walks" down the floor or couch and pulls the rest off. I am assuming this... I think he likes the help because when I let go he stops and when I loosly put my fingers around him again he starts to "walk" off his shed again. It is the coolest thing to see this process and be a part of it. I know I'm going to be told by some that I shouldn't do this but we love it. And he seems to appreciate the help.

It is also nice because three times we've been able to take his shed to my son's preschool where all the kids get to touch it and be educated on the snake. Anyway, I just thought I would share. We just did it three days ago and it is always amazing every time it happens.
