A Surprisingly Sane Blog

Yes, just one reason for now.  There are more than I can stand to type out, really.  But here’s one of the totally sicko things that I had to deal with about 15 minutes ago:

“Julie, can you please get off of me?”

“NO!”

“Ew, Jules, get your finger out of your nose.”

She replied with a cute giggle and showed me the booger stuck between her thumb and her forefinger.  Then that little snack came dangerously close to her mouth before I grabbed her hand.

“Julie!  That’s disgusting!  Throw that booger away right now!  You don’t EAT what comes out of your body!”

“No Mommy!”

“Yes.”

Giggle.  “No!  I want to eat it.”

Dare I tell her it’s going to make bugs come get her while she sleeps if she eats it?

“You can’t eat it.  That’s gross.  Here… just give me the booger and I’ll throw it away for you.”  And I’m telling this kid that what she’s doing is grosser than the suggestion I just made?

“NO!  I want it!”

And of course, I can’t control my own laughter.  I can’t believe I’m having this ridiculous pseudo-argument with my little twerp.

Finally, I convinced her to put the booger in a tissue and throw it away.

Ew.  What is wrong with these walking, talking creatures that shoot out of our va-jay-jays?
