How about I dig your nose?

Lil' J is a messy eater.
I'm pretty sure most babies are.

She chomps down her rice cereal clean during dinners but it's the complete opposite for lunches.
During lunch, the rice cereal gets onto...
the parenting station,
her arms,
my arms,
her legs,
sometimes mine too,
occasionally her forehead,
and...
right into her NOSE.

And she hates it when I clean her face.

No matter how hard I try to clean her, some bits of rice cereal choose to harden and hang out happily in her nostrils. I probably shouldn't, but I use my fingers to pull it away, sometimes.


So that day while the husband was cuddling Lil' J, he noticed that her nose was dirty.

"Ya, I know... She hates it when I try to remove it."

In true Singaporean style, he replied, "Of course lah. I dig your nose see you like or not."

And the house was filled with laughter.
