Last night while I was putting my two-year-old to bed, he asked me for his striped pants, which were in the hamper. I knew he meant the black-and-yellow striped pants, part of his bumblebee pajama set. They weren’t too smelly. I helped him put them on. Then he asked for his yellow shirt. “The bumblebee shirt?” I asked. Yes, he said. “I need to be a bumblebee.” And that, dear reader, is what he needed so he could go to sleep last night.
