Nosepicking

I admit. Our family is pretty lax with the whole nose picking rule. We are a very firm "No eating the boogers" household however.

Supper tonight was a classic then...

                    Mom- "E, do you need a tissue?"

                    E- "No mom." Finger buried to the hilt.

                    I get up to get a Kleenex at my wife's asking to see E pulling out a booger and ready to put it in her mouth.

                    Me- "E, let me remind you the rule in the house. You can pick your nose, but you can't put them in your mouth."

                    E- "Okay Daddy." As I walk by...

                    Mom- "DON'T PICK YOUR NOSE WITH THE LETTUCE!!!"

                    E- "Why? That isn't a rule."

No, dear child, it is not...we'll be administering rule changes this evening though.
