NOTE: This is not for the weak or faint of heart. If you quesy easy, this is not the story for you. This is only for the strong Mom's who have picked their children's noses at least once.
Today in our Homeschool Science Class we learned about going up....and gravity getting it down.
Jeckle came to me this a.m. saying there was something in his nose. Well we have all had colds, flu, what-have-you, so snotty noses were nothing new for this week. So I (as gross as this is) got a Q-tip (I know nothing bigger than a bread box in their nasal cavities....but oh well.....the story gets better as it goes along.....hang on!) and I went to dig out the aggressor. He kept saying you are hurting me....I knew a soft cotton laced Q-tip was not hurting the small child....so I said, No honey Mommies not hurting you....he kept insisting....Yes you are.
Anyway, I found the aggressor, tried to pry it out with my q-tip. Once again....Ouch! I said ok....I will close off this side of your nose, and we will get that booger out! BLOW HARD OUT YOUR NOSE! He did. What happens next not any mother would ever want to witness. Something white and long shoots out of his nose. It is something from an ink pen. A plastic mechanical piece that helps the clicking pen pop out and go back in. I started screaming. JECKLE, how could you. When did you....why did you WHAT WERE YOU THINKING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!??????????????????????????
Well we all lived thru the day, contrary to what the neighbors thought. No one was injured or mamed in the retelling of this story.
Just another Home School Nurse to the rescue! I get to be teacher, principle, nurse, home room reader, cafeteria lady(well maybe not the image you have in your head with slop in one hand and hair net on her hair....) and Mom all wrapped up in one loving package!
