Gross Margaret

Last night as we were tucking the boys into bed, Adam asked me "what's all over their wall?"  I guessed it was probably just dirt from Aaron putting his dirty little hands and feet on the wall (he does that a lot).  Adam was still concerned.  "Is the paint chipping?  It looks like there are marks where the paint's coming off."  I was getting a little annoyed (it was bedtime, afterall) and told him not to worry about it, I'd scrub the walls tomorrow.  Ever the detective, Adam decided to investigate further.  "Aaron, do you know what's on the wall by your bed?"  His answer?  "My boogers."

I think I'll be teaching Aaron how to scrub walls.  After I finish gagging, brushing my teeth, and soaking in a tub of lysol.

And maybe give the kid a box of kleenex to keep in his bed :)

I had a friend in high school that did that exact same thing but behind his head board and he was nicknamed booger from his family, so that is what every one knew him as. SO GROSS LOL

Nasty but kind of funny too. Glad it's you and not me having to clean buggers up off the wall not that I haven't had to clean up my share of nasty things with having 3 boys in my house. =)

Yuck! Good luck those things are become like super-glue when stuck to walls. I may or may not have had one of my boys do that and it took a solid 2 hours to get it off. Maybe.

When my nephew was about three years old he snuck into bed with my brother (his dad) and my brother pretended he was still asleep. Suddenly David pickec his nose and out comes a doozy of a bugger. He hed it in his finger and my brother was spying to see what he would do with his precious finger cargo. He looked right, he looked left and finally decided there was nothing to do with it, so he stuck it up his nose again. My brother cracked up and blew his cover...then he got up and blew his baby's nose. It happens to the best of us.
