I recently shared a cute story about my oldest here (and probably in multiple other posts on this blog), but last night my second child, the five-year-old, did a couple of things worth sharing. The first is cute. The second is, well, see for yourself.
After tucking L. into her bed last night, I bid my final farewell from the doorway. “Good night, Sweet Pea,” I said.
“Mom, what’s your favorite kind of fruit,” she suddenly asked me.
“Uuum… Probably strawberries,” I responded, somewhat puzzled.
“Okay, then, good night Sweet Strawberry.”
The other incident took place shortly before this, while I was reading her a bedtime story. I noticed her finger was doing some digging, so I told her to stop picking her nose. She complied, saying, “Okay. I pushed the snot back in.”
Who’s lost their appetites for strawberries now?
Clever little gal, and what an endearing expression to treasure.
As for the digging: I made my grandson some flannel pjs. “Mom never has to wash these,” he told me. “Why not?” I asked. “Because I don’t wipe my boogers on these ones.”
I love how your little stories that you share bring back memories to me.

How nice that the jammies you got him are too precious to him to wipe his boogers on. He must really treasure his gifts from Gram!

Ah, snot stories. Ever notice how none of the parenting books ever mention how much your life post-children will revolve around snot?

That is hilarious… I have a DeafBlind son that does some real funny things… you can read about some on our blog… but one I have not shared yet is when he put his dishes away where they are supposed to go… only problem is they were not washed yet… I took a photo and will be adding it to my post…

Awh, what a sweetheart. My dad told me that when he was a kid and it was his turn to wash, dry, and put away the dinner dishes, he would just lick them clean and put them away. What is he, a dog? Your story is much cuter! Thanks for dropping by!
