As I watched my 3 year old rub her nose on her sleeve, I said the typcial Mom line to my 3 year old "Blow your nose, you have boogers in it." Only I got a very unexpected reply as the little devil grinned back "No I don't, I already picked them out."
I spotted my three year old picking his nose and asked, "Are you suppose to be doing that?" He replied, "You're not supposed to be watching!"
I said to my three and five year olds, "You're going to knock the snot out of your noses if you keep jumping on the bed like that." My three year old asked what snot was. My five year old responded, "It's Spanish for boogers."
We're at the theater for a performance of Shrek when Shrek says his line in the play, "I smell something." My three year old leaps out of her seat and shouts, "It's me, Shrek! I pooped my pants!"
In PreK most kids are newly potty trained, so we have to help the children to the bathroom a lot. It's not the most pleasant part of the job, but I could tolerate it except for one particular time when the little girl stood up after using the potty, looked in the toilet, and announced "That looks just like what we ate for dinner last night."
I was having a great time playing with my daughter one Sunday afternoon. At one point she stuck her two fingers out and with a mischievous grin said "Look at this Dad." Trying to keep her entertained, I playfullly put her fingers in my mouth pretending to bite them as I said "Daddy's gonna' eat your fingers for lunch." She just stood there with a shocked look on her face. When I asked what was wrong, she replied "What happened to my booger?"
Like all Moms, I try to instill in my kids the importance of sharing... only my oldest son has figured out a sure-fire way to avoid this sibling duty. One day while in the kitchen my daughter came to me in tears yelling "Mitchel took my squirt gun." From the other room I heard Mitchel defending himself "I offered to give it back." When I asked my daughter if this was true, she cried "Yes, but he put it down his pants." Turns out once an item goes down Mitchel's pants it loses its desirablity.
