Running into my bedroom on Monday night:
Emily: "Mom....I think I have a bead up my nose."
Me: (Sitting bolt upright in bed) "What do you mean - you THINK? Do you have a bead up your nose? Yes or No?!?!
Emily: (trying to blow her nose and shaking her head)" I don't know - Maybe...."
I grab the bridge of her nose and pinch so she can't force it up higher.
Me: "EMILY DAMALI! YOU KNOW IF YOU HAVE A BEAD UP YOUR NOSE! DO YOU HAVE A BEAD UP YOUR NOSE????"
Emily tilts her head down and blows.....
A bright orange bead rolls out her nose onto my bed. We both stare at it. She looks up at me, sheepishly.
Emily: "I had a bead in my nose. Don't tell Dad, Ok?"

Pretty sure I mentioned this when you posted this before, but I once had a Jelly Belly jelly bean up my nose. I won't mention how old I was; let's just say I was between 12 and 14.
