You have a whole planet to sneeze on

We were putting Amelie to bed tonight and the dog walks up to Brad, looks at him, and sneezes in his face. Brad then says, "You have a whole planet to sneeze on...Go sneeze somewhere else!!!"

This cracked me up and instantly gave me a reason to blog tonight.

Isn't this so true when it comes to kids? When they get their first cold or their first tooth, they don't know what to do with this excess snot coming from their noses. But, even worse, they don't really care. And even more worse, they can't resist sticking their tongue in it. YUCK!!! I remember teaching Amelie that if she sneezed, not to touch it, and I would run and get a tissue. She was very good about it, but she could never resist reaching her tongue toward her nose...Good Lord...it's even worse to write about it.

And then comes teaching them to cover their nose when they sneeze. If you get a nice ray of sun coming through your window and they stand just right, you can truly see how much junk is floating through the air when they sneeze.

I know, not the best topic. But next time this happens to you just say..."You have a whole planet to sneeze on...Go sneeze somewhere else!!!"
