Recent equally disturbing and hilarious convo with the Wadester that went something like this….
{I’m pretty sure this would qualify as over-sharing, and is not for the squeamish [mom]. I apologize in advance.}
Me: You better not be eating your boogers, Wade.
Wade: {Sidelong glance with Big & Guilty grin confirming my suspicions.}
Me: That is so nasty. You do NOT eat your boogers!
Wade: {With brow wrinkled and head tilted} But, boogers make me strong too!
An apparent side effect of my efforts to convince him to eat his veggies because they will make him grow big and strong.
I definitely didn’t see that one coming.
Proof that raising boys is often disgusting.
This just made me LOL… too funny. I'm still having these types of convo's with my first graders! Ewww! lol
Ha ha, that's hilarious!
Well, there WAS a medical journal study done that proved that while eating other people's boogers could be detrimental to your health, eating your own can be beneficial – because you're raising your immunities to the germs you're surrounded by.
Hmm… I'm thinking I need to find that article and write a blog post about it. The world needs to be educated on booger-eating.
