Thank God for boogers
Yes, that's right. The other night, Ashlinn thanked God for her boogers while we were praying before bed. I almost choked trying to hold back my laughter. Ever since we got sick a few weeks ago, she's been quite obsessed with picking her nose and talking about boogers. Every time I see her with her fingers in her nose, I tell her to please take her fingers out of her nose and that she can only get her boogers out with a kleenex. Now I just have to tell her to take her fingers out of her nose, and she'll beat me to the last part and say, "Only with a kleenex!" in this triumphant voice, as if she remembered all on her own. Of course, she never does use a kleenex. Disgusting, I know. I guess it comes with the territory of raising a 2-year-old.

Too funny-- my son starting praying for his boogers a couple of months ago. When I posted about it on my FB status I got more thumbs up than i had ever for anything else- haha! Maybe it's God's way of lightening up a gross habit to remind us that in the scheme of things nose-picking is not the worst that can (or will) happen.
ReplyDeleteThat's funny. :) I'm guess I'm glad I'm not the only one with a kid who likes to talk (and pray) about boogers!
