The Reason for Eating Boogies

At a picnic recently, one of my friends asked Zachary to tell her something about himself. He {never having a lack of things to say} rose to the occasion.

Z: Well, I used to eat my boogies.

C: Ok.... Why?

Z: Because it's the best way to get them off my fingers.

Why I'm even surprised anymore at the stuff that he says, I don't know....

A few weeks ago McKenna had a tick climbing up her leg while we were eating breakfast and since then has been a little leery of bugs in general. Now everything 'could be a tick' and she's a little sensitive on the topic.

McKenna came racing in the house yesterday hysterically screaming that she had one biting her under her shirt . She showed me where it had been crawling before she brushed it off. After she had calmed down some and the trauma had passed she kept looking at the spot and saying it burned a little.

She looked up at me ever-so-serious and asked, "Mom, do you think it could be heartburn?"

{and I tried so desperately not to burst out laughing...}
