Yuckikaka

See that?
That’s what my family likes to call Yuckikaka
Let me explain:
We have a golden retriever
When the now six year old was just over a year
He would crawl all around and gather puppy hair from the rug
(no matter how many times I vacuumed BTW)
He’d roll it in his fingers into little balls and when I’d find them in his hand I’d take it and say:
“Eww yuckikaka!”
Little did I know it’d become his comfort piece..
(Yes he takes some to school in his pocket everysingleday)
I’ll spare you the details of when he dropped his Yuckikaka on the floor of the grocery store and started screaming “MY YUCKIKAKA MY YUCKIKAKA!”
Mostly b/c I’m still overcoming the stare from the poor woman behind me frantically looking on the floor for something of significance
Imagine her surprise when the thing that sent my little baby boy into a panic was none other than
A freakin’ hair ball…
Still- to this day (and the reason for this post)
I find Yuckikaka EVERYWHERE!
In pockets, in pillowcases, in socks, in my purse.. in my car.. at other people’s houses
So- if you find some you know where it came from!
