It's always followed up with things like "Why boogers are formed when things get in your nose?"<br /><br />My favorite answer is "I don't know.

A nice portion of that floating around stuff is dead skin coming off your (and your mom and dad and sis's) body.<br /><br />Then when you cry, some of the tears go down the inside of your face and some go down the outside. When the tears go in the inside, the wet tears mix with the dried up booger dust and skin cells and then it's like making mud pies - except that it's really a flesh slurry.<br /><br />The hair in your nose can't hang onto slime, just like you can't hang onto slime in your fingers. (Imagine holding a dirt clump that suddenly changes to a mud.) So the flesh slurry (I mean boogers) flows out of your nose down your lips and right into your mouth for a tasty snack. <br /><br />And so, my dear son, every time you eat your boogers, it's like you are a little cannibal eating people parts.<br /><br />Why don't you know, Mommy?:<br />I used to know those things, but every time you toot or breathe your stinky morning breath on me, it kills a bunch of my brain cells. The answer to *that* question was in the brain cells that died on October 19th when you had that giant toxic poop in MY bathroom. <br /><br />Hard to believe I'm not employed in the Social Services field, eh?Dhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12075695049692012076noreply@blogger.com
