My mom took her to the ER after she realized she could not get the bead out of her nose. What they had her do is hold one one side of her nose with out the bead, open Brooklynn's mouth and blow into it. Out it came along with some goodies all over my mom's face.

I don't have to worry about my almost-3 year old putting Tic Tacs in his nose because apparently, judging from his comments on their "what does this smell like" activity in preschool today, peppermint smells "Yucky."

He came from work, put his hankie up to my face, plugged the non-crayon-nostril, said "now blow!", and voila, out popped the crayon.
