Big booger

Tonight's events have totally solidified mine and Jeff's run for #ParentsoftheYear. About a month ago Cole got a bloody nose at school. No one knew what had happened and we couldn't see anything up his nose so we basically told him to quit being a diaper baby and toughen up. 

Well, he's complained about a "big booger" in his nose off and on ever since. Tonight he reprimanded Pearl for not praying for "the big booger to come out." So I checked one more time and what did I see? A piece of rubber playground mulch! We tried and tried and tried to pull it out, blow it out, and push it out but finally gave in and took him to Instacare. One try by the doctor, zippo tears {ironic because you'd have tought we were killing the kid earlier}, and a giant bill later and here's the culprit.
