Sometimes for Monkey’s afternoon nap, when I am tired too, we take a nap together in my bed. Yesterday I was singing him the “ABC” song, which he loves before he goes to sleep for some reason. He usually moves a bunch at first & then he’ll quiet down & go to sleep.
While he was rolling around & exploring my face, his little finger went into one of my nostrils. & it went in there hard. It all happened so fast that before I knew it my nose was bleeding. For the first time ever in my entire life.
Naturally I freaked out because my nose has never bled, but everything was fine. It hurt for a little while & I wanted to scream all sorts of obscenities. But I also wanted to laugh because Monkey was looking at me with such concern. It was sweet. After realizing that my nose was going to be just fine, I cuddled with Monkey & we fell asleep.
I guess this is my lesson to make sure to catch his little fingers before they injure my nostril, poke out an eye, or grab one of my eyelashes (his latest favorite “game”).
