Picking a Winner

When we were little, my brother and me have destroyed the wallpaper in our room by hanging boogers on it. In our dacha we also tore off layers of wallpaper to see what other paper was underneath it, with the end result of a 3 foot wide exploration hole in the wall decorated by, you guessed it, our snot. I cannot for the life of me figure out why we thought it was ok to do it, but I am just relaying that fact to you now - we did it a lot!

Somehow along the way the bad habit of picking my nose never went away, and so you can place the blame for Eva picking her nose squarely on my shoulders.

When she first got dexterious enough to get her finger up there I laughed so hard that she must have decided that it was the right thing to do. And so the habit has started...

When Eva wakes up at night she lays there and picks her nose in thought. I think that it relaxes her, which might also be a reason we did it when we were little (and I do it now sometimes). But honestly, how else do you get boogers out of your nose? (And dont' tell me kleenex, because I know for a fact that it does not do it for me). She looks so serious when she does it, and I have to say that it is actually very very cute.
