I was sitting outside at my mom's house yesterday, enjoying the beautiful weather when I got a call from my sister Tara. She told me that she was on her way to urgent care because her little Ava bean (who is 2 mind you) stuck two popcorn kernels up her nose and they were stuck way up there! I then had a genius idea-- wait, wait, I actually have to give credit to Steve Terry, my friend Kristen's dad, because she stuck a popcorn kernel in her ear once and he sucked it out with a straw... how could I ever forget that?! I told Tara to turn her car around and come over so she could suck it out herself with a straw. Everyone knows how expensive urgent care is right? So she turned the car around and Ava came running in and exclaimed "Ewin, I got sumpin' stuck in my nose!" Tara tried sucking it out herself but said that all she could get was air. That's when I took matters into my own hands...
I sucked as hard as I could and out popped the first kernel! It was so disgustingly cool, it seriously gave me an adrenaline rush! I didn't even hesitate getting the next kernel out. That one, I had to suck a little harder because so many boogers were attached! Being a mom has changed me. I can do gross things like this now!
After I retrieved the second kernel from her nose, Ava so politely said "Fank you Ewin!" And she gave me a big kiss on the cheek!
I think I deserve the "Best Aunt Award!" You can just start calling me Dr. Larsen. Who needs urgent care when they've got me?!
Way to go! I'm happy to know this trick now because there is a good chance it will come in handy with kylee or brayden. ;)
ReplyDeleteI love that she "fanked" you! You are SO talented on SO many levels!!!!

ReplyDeleteOh my gosh. The second I read she stuck two kernels up here nose, I quickly scanned the page for my name. Sure enough, there it was. I couldn't stop giggling. I can't believe you remember that but at the same time, I guess I can:)
