Boogers

So, we've had quite a few discussions on boogers lately. These conversations have taken place in the car on the way to Emma's little PALS preschool.

Emma: "Mommy how come when I pick my nose and I get all the boogers out they just come back again?"

Mommy: "hmmm. that's a good question, we'll ask Daddy later, K?" :)

Another morning on the way to school:

Mommy: "Emma, get your finger out of your nose please."

Emma: "Well, how come I can't just have my finger in my nose?"

Mommy: "Because it is very bad manners. We need to use a tissue if there is something in there that you need to get out. Someone might see you and say, 'Oh what a pretty little girl...but she's picking her nose. ew. yucky.'

Emma: (while looking around) "well, there's no one around right now to see me, mom" :)

Mommy: sigh
