Married a geek, then left a job in advertising to be a personal assistant to a toddler. The pay is... well, nonexistent, but the perks are simply priceless.

Daily Thanks: This Sucks, but I like it.

DAY THREE: Kind of gross, but.... today, I'm a grateful for this little sucker... and I do mean sucker. It used to be intimidate by it (just like those awful baby nail clippers), but now I don't know how we'd survive spring and fall allergies without it...
So, tell me, does "allergy season" ever really end, because I'm sick of wiping noses. I've been doing it for months... for my son and all of his little friends. They all look like "glazed donuts" as one mom quipped.

By the way, the baby nail clippers... still scary. Won't use them.

Baby nail clippers are ok. You can do it or you could be weird and bite the nails off like my grandma does. lol The easiest way to do it is when they are asleep but if you don't keep those things trimmed they are going to scratch you. Oh sure maybe but not now but soon. lol

Since I've been using the "booger sucker" on the baby, when necessary, the older kids have all asked (at one point or another), "will that work on us, too?"

Then I ask, "Do you want me to try?"

"NO!"

I can't handle baby nail clippers either --- hence my permanently scratched face!!
