What is it about
little boys sticking things up their noses? My third son did it
for the second time today. The first time he did it he stuck a
bead up his nose. Of course it promptly got stuck. After a
couple hefty blows it was out…thank goodness.
Well tonight he did it again. This time with one of those soft
little balls you get at the craft store. We've been decorating
little Christmas trees and things with them. They're really
tiny. Appropriately enough, it was a green
one, no bigger than the width of a small pencil eraser. Since it
was so soft what does it do but absorb stuff. Nose stuff.
No amount of blowing would get it unstuck. So I just gave up
thinking there was nothing there.
Then
I get a call from the den, “Mom, where's the flashlight?” I
answer and a few minutes later #2 son comes to get me telling me there
really is something in #3 son's nose. I enter the den to find my
husband with a flashlight shining it up #3 son's nose, son is lying on
the couch with a green furry ball thingie so far up in his nose you can
barely see it. So back to the huffing and puffing and
finally…..blam….out it comes….right onto my hand. And of
course it sticks there. What else would it do?
Oh, did I mention that before it was in my kid's nose it was stuck with
Elmer's Glue to the dog's butt?? You think I'm kidding! Not!
BOYS!!!!!!!!!
