Sanity or Patience: choose one.

Do you ever have one of those moments where you think, "HA! I am sane!" Then you step in dog poo with your bare feet and remember it was your idea to get the puppy...?

Monsoon on a Stuffy Nose. (warning: gross post)

My baby's got a bit of a cold, so I was rocking with him near bedtime and we were have such a nice cuddle fest that I didn't bother to stop rocking when he started falling asleep. Before he could totally conk out, though, he had a massive slurpy/stuffy/snotty-nose sniffing attack. You know, when you need to blow your nose but instead just sniff and snuff for a long moment to suck it all back up.


I whispered: I can get you a tissue, Honey Pot.


Monsoon whispered (half asleep): No, Mommy.. I just like the taste of boogers.


I never thought I'd miss the days when he handed me a green slimeball after a particularly juicy sneeze.

I worked years in nursing homes so something as mild as a few boogers don't bother me none, but this post did make me laugh. How cute...what kids will say! Thank you for stopping by my blog and leaving a comment. I always really appreciate them.

Yuck! It's my own fault. You warned me and I kept reading anyway. But seriously, don't all kids like the taste of their own boogers.
