Me, “Come here boys. I want to show you something.”
We all walk into the living room. They are bothered as they are sure I am going to give them a job.
Instead I say, “Who is wiping their boogers on the wall when they are sitting in this chair?”
I point to “Mount Snotmore” and they all three make faces like this…
Then they all start doing that Beavis and Butthead giggle.
I have found things on the wall before…
I shouldn’t be grateful it is just boogers this time, but I am. I am happy it is not a slug or worse.
I ask again who is doing this gross thing and they all simultaneously say it isn’t them.
So it’s this guy again I find in my house from time to time…
I bet it is this one. He just looks like a booger wiper.
I tell them I have bought a BOOGER DNA test from Walgreens and if whomever has done this despicable act comes clean before I get the results I might be more understanding.
It’s Booger-Gate!
They make faces like this now.
Boy, “What? They can do that now?!!”
They begin turning on each other.
Another boy, “Sure they can! If they can do it on those TV shows!”
And yet another boy, “If it was you that put them here, you better tell her!”
Second boy from above, “I put mine in the back seat of the car. Those aren’t mine.”
It was a complete “Bogger-Gate” and the worst part is that the other two came clean by telling me where their secret booger stash was, that I hadn’t found yet.
Is this normal behavior for boys? Some boys? Some animals? Expected from the children I birth?

I am simultaneously making the horrified face, the gaggy face, and the I feel your pain face. And I’m laughing too. In short, you just turned me into a giggling troll doll thing. (I have 3 boys. I truly feel your pain!)

OMG! Too funny. DNA testing for boogers! I laughed out loud. Wish I could try that, but alas, my kid’s boogers to into his mouth not on the wall. I’m not sure whether I should be happy or not about that. Hmmm.

Ewwwwwww, that is just so gross! It’s probably a good thing I never had children, I just don’t have the stomach for it! LOL! (Love the BOOGER MAN!) π
So funny and gross. I have a few bathroom stories that go kinda like that, but are too gross to share in public. Boys will be boogers.
Oh, let me tell you…I hear dat! Ha ha! I don’t share everything as, hang head in shame, they would run away…and then audition for that show “Jackass.” We need prayers and meditation. I will pray for you and you pray for me. Really we would be praying for our boys that we don’t send them off to boarding school. π
Boys are so gross!! π Everytime I read one of your stories I’m thankful for my little girl (with her OTHER set of issues!)
I stopped by your blog to let you know I nominated you for the Sunshine Blogger Award π The details are here: http://unfinishedbizness.wordpress.com/2012/06/07/passing-along-some-sunshine/
Enjoy!
Thank you so much for reading, commenting and a reward to boot!!! I love all three! See the booger thing caught me off guard as they are never seen “mining.” I have seen some girls do some pretty wacky things but the boys really, really enjoy it.
hope you find out who the real Booger Man is with you DNA tester
How did I not think of that..,BOOGER MAN! Awesome!
Behind the headboard on oldest grandguys bed.
Quite conspiratorial he was when he showed me.
Booger stashes seem to be a secret grandmas are privy to.
It’s like marking your territory or peeing outside for boys. I mean I know that girls do it too but I’m nearly certain with less satisfaction. Ha ha!
LOL!! Love it! I’m going to remember that DNA testing bit . . . that’s has got to come in handy somewhere down the line! And I guess you could look on the bright side . . . at least they’re not eating them. I’ve caught my guy doing that which imop is WAY worse! Not a problem with my girls . . . I guess it’s just a glitch in male DNA! π
Yes, they aren’t eaters but I have known a few. I guess I should count even the small blessings. π
I believe this is normal behavior for any child, boy or girl. At least they are equally disgusting in my house. We have an equal opportunity gross out factor, apparently. π
So I tell them that everyone picks their nose but you need to do it in private and use a tissue and wash hands. Clearly they stopped listening after in private. π
I am afraid my dudes have booger-gate, too. I don’t want to find it yet – I think I will let my husband hunt for it. π
I think booger piles are more prevalent than I wanted to believe. Ewwwwww! I live in a hamster cage.
