OK, so let me set the scene. Sunday night, Harry is asleep and Holly has declared that Mamma and Daddy are BOTH putting her to bed tonight. This apparently means twice the amount of stories. So teeth are brushed, hair is brushed, toileted and watered up, and the books have now been read. So part of the bedtime ritual here at ourfamilyfreeman is, after all of this, we have to tell Holly a story. It has to be a new one every night, so while Mamma is trying conjure up something new and wonderful, Andrew spots an eyelash on Holly's cheek (just near her nose). He swipes it up with his index finger and presses it with his thumb and says, "up or down?" Holly is bit confused and eventually says "up?". Andrew then says "Now make a wish and blow" Holly looks, thinks for a second, and blows his finger. It was a very innocent and sweet moment.
However, the next thing we know, Holly is picking her nose (digging deep!), pulls her finger out and says, "up or down?" and then tells Andrew to "blow, daddy, blow the booger away!!" The moment had totally been lost in translation. She had thought he had picked a booger off her nose/cheek!!
I swear I have not laughed so hard in a long time!!!
