The kids and I went to pick up a pizza earlier this evening and as we waited in the crowded counter area, I looked down to see my son vigorously rubbing his nose.
I had seen this before. This was the booger rub.
I looked around for a napkin, but there were none in sight. I didn’t want to be standing among a group of people, who were picking up their dinner, and see a green glob on my son’s knuckle, so I nudged him and quietly requested, “Hey buddy, why don’t you wait until we’re in the car to do that?”
And, not realizing that this was something he should do with a bit of modesty, he loudly replied, “You mean I should wait until we get in the car to pick my nose?”
Yeah, that’s right…and we’re going to pass on those green peppers.

Kids can kill you sometimes in public. I had taken my son, between the age of two and three into the mens room to pee. He was being trained, and was standing UP. When I turned him around from the toilet to put his pants back together, he saw a Deputy Sheriff at the urinal and said, (at the top of his voice), "Look daddy, that man has a big penis." I could not get out of there fast enough, and can't wait to share that story at his rehersal dinner when he gets married!
Kids, ya gotta love em!

Ah, kids. How would we know embarrassment without them? I love your son's lack of embarrassment. This is another reason my purse and/or diaper bag was stuffed with kleenex and wet naps and . . . My purse still is. I would be totally mortified if my teens started using their sleeves . . . again.

How funny. Reminds me of the first time my 2 year old saw an Ethiopian lady in the supermarket (very dark skin) and said "Mummy! Look! There's a chocolate lady!!"
