A Tale of Snot

Last night, we were making our way through our typical bedtime routine, when Cadie insisted that she give Maddie night-night sugars and hugs. It’s something new they’re both insisting on and why would we squash and opportunity for sisterly love? In truth, it’s probably just another opportunity to get out of bed and delay the inevitable bedtime, but I’ll take that over, “Mommy, I need to go potty!” any day.

So, Cadie leaned in and gave Maddie her best “monster” hug, then moved in for the kiss. I can only guess that, due to the dim lighting conditions, Cadie failed to notice Maddie’s upper lip condition because she quickly pulled away with an audible “Ew!” and said, “She got snot on me!” Oh, the sweet sounds of bedtime.
