Go Away Boogers!!

We have had sickness in our house - it seems to have lasted for two months (in one form or another). I can't wait for the day that all of us are healthy all at the same time. That would be a red letter day! Anyway, Grace was sitting on the couch this morning and I hear her freaking out. She was kicking her legs, shaking her arms, wiggling her head, and repeating "Go away boogers, go away boogers!" Should that make me laugh? I have to say that it did! We had a quick rehearsal of the nose wipe process, and then she was ok. I think the next time I have a runny nose I might just say, "go away boogers, go away", and see if someone will come wipe my nose for me. Do you think I will have any luck?

ps... no photo posted - because that would be gross.

Two year old fun...

I let Grace play in the flour left over from making bread the other day. We have a new toy! I had no idea that it would entertain her for as long as it did. Five Plus Hours!!! She had fun making "cakes" and moving it around. A cup of flour sure makes for an easy and inexpensive pastime.
