Thaddeus, Nathan and I have been a little sick for almost a week now and have had a lot of congestion and a little bit of a sore throat. Fortunately Callia has escaped it so far, but I fear not for much longer! This morning when I was putting the two of them in the car to take Callia to preschool, Callia was already in her seat, waiting to be buckled, I finished buckling Thad and looked down in my bags for something. When I looked up I saw her pick a booger out of his nose, and as I began to say "Don't pick...", her finger shot into her mouth! So yes, I did switch what I was going to say to "Don't eat your brother's boogers"!
Later, when I told Nathan about it he of course laughed and said that when he had talked to her before about eating her own boogers she said "I just like the way they taste". To reveal something embarrassing about myself as a child around preschool age, I remember thinking that, too! I can't remember how old I was when I changed my mind, but I'm sure Callia won't always feel like that, either!
I don't think I would have ever even considered eating someone else's, though. Maybe this morning's incident says something about how close she feels to her brother. Hopefully its that and not an indicator of how much discretion she is going to end up with!
